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.

Since this is a Private Members' Bill, Second Stage must, under Standing Orders, be taken in Private Members' time.
There must have been a lot of tears being shed behind the scenes if all those tissues were needed.
The Deputy is straying from the question.
There are just over four minutes remaining for this question and we have three other questioners. I do not know whether the Taoiseach will have time to reply. I call Deputy Bríd Smith.
Are Deputies amenable to taking some time from the third group of questions? Will ten minutes suffice? Is that agreed? Agreed. I call Deputy Paul Murphy.
There is a little over a minute remaining.
There are 20 seconds each for Deputies McDonald and Kelly.
There is not.
I do not think that is relevant to the question.
Deputy Mairéad Farrell is next but is not here, nor is anyone from Solidarity-People Before Profit. We will hear from Deputy Murnane O'Connor.
My apologies to Deputy Ó Murchú. I should have called him before Deputy Connolly but better late than never.
