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.

We must be brief now because we cannot have lengthy statements, Deputy Barry.
We are dealing with a proposal on the Order of Business, and nothing else. Does the Taoiseach want to comment?
Are we in agreement with the proposal?
Are we agreed with the proposal?

The time is up, Deputy, please.
You have got a good bit in.
