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.

Members, please. Do you know what? We can tear up the rule book and do what we like in here if we are not going to adhere to the rules that Members themselves put in place.
I plead with Members to adhere to the time limits.
The Deputy should remember this is Leaders' Questions.
Time is up.
We will now hear the view from the sunny south east.
The Taoiseach without interruption.
May I insist here that Members ask one question for no more than one minute and that there be no more than one minute of an answer?
I call Deputy Mattie McGrath on the same matter.
We cannot have a conversation.
The Taoiseach's time is up.
We cannot have a second bite of the question. I call Deputy Grealish.
Please, there is only a minute for a response.
I thank the Deputy.
We can only deal with one item.
Can the Taoiseach cast any light on this matter?
Is the Bill opposed?
Since this is a Private Members' Bill, Second Stage must, under Standing Orders, be taken in Private Members' time.

In fairness to the Minister, Deputy Humphreys, her presence in this Chamber has been very regular and frequent. I accept that if she could be here, she would be here.
