On prevailing side: this member voted with the winning side in 312 of 313 decisive votes (0 abstentions excluded).

We now move to People Before Profit-Solidarity. Deputy Paul Murphy is sharing time with Deputy Mick Barry.
No equality there.
I turn to the Independent Group. Deputy Joan Collins is sharing with Deputies Pringle and McNamara.
The next item I have selected is from Deputy Michael Moynihan, which is to discuss understaffing and resources in the ambulance services in counties Cork and Kerry. It is good to hear that the Deputy is looking after Kerry as well. The Minister of State, Deputy Anne Rabbitte, will respond.
