On prevailing side: this member voted with the winning side in 16 of 353 decisive votes (1 abstention excluded). Read it as a government-or-opposition indicator rather than a measure of influence — the figure is near 100% for members supporting the government of the day and near 0% for those opposing it.
This is the point of the site: contributions keep the party held on the day, not the one held now.

Let us be clear why we are here listening to these North Korean-style eulogies for Simon Harris. We are here because-----
-----the Government made a decision-----
The Government made a decision to table a confidence motion in the Tánaiste when there was a rumour of a no-confidence motion that has not been seen-----
-----and has not been tabled.
It is very important that since we have the issue of broken promises and confidence on the table, we deal with all the Tánaiste's infamous promises. The first one, of course, relates to 2017 and the promise no child would wait more than four months for scoliosis surgery. The Tánaiste has a habit of making grandiose promises he cannot fulfil and we are now in a situation where Gillian and Stephen in particular, and the other parents, have had to campaign long and hard. Government TDs left the briefing yesterday, whi…
Is the Government going to pass the occupied territories Bill in full? The Taoiseach indicated yesterday that it will deal with just one aspect and not with services. We need to know this before the presidential election next week-----
I am allowed to mention that there is an election coming.
I would like to ask the Tánaiste why he gave authorisation for a US military plane to land on Sunday, reportedly, that was en route with either troops or armaments to the Nevatim Israeli military base? He has committed to supporting the Palestinian people and supporting the Palestinian state.
He was asked to give authorisation and I would like to know why he gave that because he has made promises to stand for Palestine and he has not delivered on that either.
We are allowed to mention that there is an election.
A Cheann Comhairle, are we not mentioning that there is an election next week? Is that barred?
But that is why we are here having a debate.
It is not the Minister of State's decision to make.
The Government took a decision in the budget to give huge tax cuts to developers, the fast food industry and the hospitality sector to boost trade and competitiveness. In doing so, it has made people 2% worse off according to the ESRI and the bottom 10% of society are 4.4% worse off. I will specifically ask the Taoiseach about electricity. We have the highest electricity costs in the EU and we hear that retail prices are three times higher than wholesale prices. Massive profiteering is taking place in electricity t…
Maybe it is not such a bad idea after all to go back to the model we had in the 1970s and 1980s when people could afford electricity.
I know. Fianna Fáil sent a lot of people emigrating. I remember it.
You are gas.
We are saying to nationalise electricity.
I, indeed, will be raising it too.
The Deputy just happened to be the first person. In relation to Palestine and the ceasefire, I want to ask the Taoiseach, "What now?" What should be the approach of the Government in relation to what has happened? Obviously, any respite for the people of Gaza and for the children of Gaza from the genocide that they have endured for almost two years is hugely welcome. However, of the people who are in charge of this peace deal, Netanyahu was a war criminal last week. He is a war criminal this week. Donald Trump has …
