Deputies, please.
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.

Deputies, please.
I am told that there has been some problem with the clock. It happened before I arrived. I call Deputy Mattie McGrath to respond.
A vote has been called and is deferred until the voting block this evening.
Cuirim fáilte ar ais roimh an Taoiseach.
Please, Deputies.
I thank Deputy McDonald. The time is up.
Please, the time is up.
Quiet, please.
Time is up.
Time is up.
Can we just restore some order, please? I call Deputy Alan Kelly.
We are travelling into previously unvisited territory.
I perfectly accept the validity of exploring issues around a SIPO report but I would have concerns about mentioning people who have not been mentioned heretofore and who are not here to defend themselves in any way.
All right. Just let us tread carefully.
The Taoiseach, without interruption.
Deputy, will you let the Taoiseach respond?
Please, Deputy Murphy. I call Deputy Tóibín.
Time is up, Deputy, please.
Can we not adhere to the time limits, please?
The Deputy may ask only one question.
