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.

As there are eight questions in total, we will have to stick to one minute per question.
I thank the Taoiseach. The time is up and we need to move on to Question No. 9.
There were, but I am afraid 31 questions are being answered today. We are not going to have time to debate them all.
We are out of time.
We need to move on to Question No. 20.
