The Business Committee met yesterday and discussed this matter.
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.

The Business Committee met yesterday and discussed this matter.
Thank you very much.
The immigration issue, Taoiseach.
I call Deputy Mary Lou McDonald.
We must get the Deputy to move to County Kildare.
Will we take another question or does the Minister of State want to deal with that?
Fine.
We will take questions from Deputy Mattie McGrath and Deputy Brady and the Minister of State will then respond.
Deputy Howlin will come in again.
That concludes the Minister of State's response. He may now provide his concluding remarks.
Seanad Éireann has passed the National Cultural Institutions (National Concert Hall) (Amendment) Bill 2022 without amendment.
Deputy Gould is not yet leader of his party.
Please stop interrupting the Minister.
A little order, please.
Can we stop all of this back and forth, please? Let us conduct ourselves properly.
It is Deputy Sherlock's leader's question. Let the leader get an answer.
The Deputy's time is up.
Time, please.
Thank you, Minister.
Please. We are over time.
