On prevailing side: this member voted with the winning side in 312 of 313 decisive votes (0 abstentions 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.

Are there any further questions?
Would the Minister of State like to deal with those questions and then wrap up?
Sorry, briefly-----
Jim Fitzsimons, the former MEP, was a great man on Sellafield for many years. The Minister of State would have known him.
The Select Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform, and Taoiseach has completed its consideration of the following Revised Estimates for Public Services for the service of the year ending on 31 December 2024: Votes 7, 8, 9 and 10.
I thank the Tánaiste. The time is up.
In accordance with Standing Order 80(2), the division is postponed until the weekly division time this evening. I thank everyone who participated in that very important debate.
Amendments Nos. 1 to 3, inclusive, and amendments Nos. 10 to 12, inclusive, are related and may be discussed together.
Amendments Nos. 4 and 5 are related and may be discussed together.
Amendments Nos. 6 to 8, inclusive, are related and may be discussed together.
If you have to.
I thank the Minister of State very much for his alacrity and clarity, as always.
Cuirfear an Bille chun an tSeanaid anois. Go raibh maith agaibh go léir as ucht bhur gcomhoibriú ar an ábhar tábhachtach sin.
Amendments Nos. 2 and 5 are related and may be taken together.
Amendments Nos. 3, 4 and 6 are related and may be taken together.
Deputy Murphy has a further two minutes if he wishes but if I now call on the Minister of State to respond, I cannot call him again.
The Deputy gets another two minutes.
That is it.
As the Deputy is a teller and the difference in the votes is less than ten, the division will proceed.
I must now deal with a deferred division relating to the ministerial amendment to the motion regarding housing and homeless prevention. Yesterday, on the question, "That the amendment be made" a division was claimed and that division must be taken now.
