Sorry, Deputy, can we have silence in the Gallery, 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.

Sorry, Deputy, can we have silence in the Gallery, please?
The Deputy has made his point.
Is the proposal for dealing with Thursday's business agreed to?
Deputy Griffin is looking to get in but I can only hear one Member from the Government, unless he wants to answer instead of the Taoiseach.
Please, the Taoiseach without interruption.
Please, Deputy.
The question is-----
I am sorry, Deputy, but I am putting the question.
Is the Bill opposed?
Since this is a Private Members' Bill, Second Stage must, under Standing Orders, be taken in Private Members' time.
I call Deputy Róisín Shortall.
I call Deputy Verona Murphy, sharing with Deputies Fitzpatrick and Tóibín.
I understand that Deputy Calleary is sharing time with colleagues.
Deputy Carol Nolan is sharing time with Deputies Michael Healy-Rae, Richard O'Donoghue and Danny Healy-Rae.
Deputy Pringle is sharing time with Deputy Connolly.
I understand the Minister of State, Deputy Ossian Smyth, is sharing with Deputy Richmond.
Deputy Doherty, please.
Gabhaim buíochas leis an Teachta. Mar aon leis na Baill uilig a labhair roimhe seo, ba mhaith liom mo chomhghairdeas a dhéanamh léi as an gcéad píosa reachtaíochta a bheith aici anseo os comhair na Dála. Is é an chéad jab eile atá le déanamh againn anois ná ár n-aird a dhíriú isteach ar an leasú Uimh. 1 in ainm an Aire Caiteachais Phoiblí agus Athchóirithe.
De réir Buan-Ordú 70(2) tá an vóta curtha ar atráth go dtí tráthnóna amárach nuair a bheidh na vótaí ar fad á dtabhairt againn.
I thank the Minister. I am sorry for rushing Members but we are way over time this evening.
