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.

I call Deputy Tóibín. If the Members are not brief with their questions, there will not be sufficient time for the Taoiseach to answer them.
Will the Taoiseach respond to Deputy Brendan Smith's issue?
