Rhetoric & votes →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.

I point out that, after tortuous consideration, this proposal is being run on a trial basis until the end of term to see how it works.

That is not a matter for the Taoiseach. The Business Committee has agreed that we will move back to a three-day week. Considerable discussion has taken place on that. Those three-day sittings will be taking place as soon as is feasible.

Is the proposal for dealing with Thursday's business agreed? Agreed. We move now to our new system of Questions on Promised Legislation. There is a minute for everyone. We will begin with the Sinn Féin leader.

We have a number of Members offering so I propose that we will have one minute for the question because if all ask questions then the Taoiseach will have no time to answer. If Members want to hear an answer we should stick to one minute per question.

I have five further Members offering and we have five and a half minutes left in the slot. Do we want to take five or ten minutes from the remaining two blocks of questions? There is 15 minutes for each block. Is that agreed or will we go back to the Taoiseach now to hear his response and not hear the five other Members? Is it agreed to have five minutes for each?

It is immaterial to me what Deputies do but if they are going to ask the Taoiseach questions, it is quite reasonable that they give him time to answer.

Can we take five minutes off each block and add ten minutes to this? I ask Deputies to be brief.

We have given these questions as much time as we can. We need to move on to Question No. 5.

We have a housekeeping difficulty again in that Deputies Boyd Barrett, Ó Murchú, Ó Snodaigh, Carthy, Barry and Tóibín are all offering but there are only a few minutes remaining. I propose that we take ten minutes from the next question and bring them forward to allow the Deputies to speak on this group of questions. It will mean that we only have time to deal with two groups of questions today. Is that agreed? Agreed.
