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.

Sin críoch leis na ráitis maidir le poist a chosaint agus tacaíocht a thabhairt do ghnó. Táimid ag dul ar aghaidh anois go dtí an chéad phíosa oibre eile, sé sin ráitis maidir leis an gcaiteachas mar fhreagairt ar ghéarchéim Covid-19. I now call on the Minister for Public Expenditure and Reform, Deputy Michael McGrath, who has 30 minutes for his opening statement.
I will ask Deputy Nash to adjourn the debate at 11 p.m. There are approximately nine minutes left.
I ask the Deputy to propose the adjournment. He will have just under two minutes left in his slot. I am sure a number of us want to get home to watch those box sets at this hour of the night.
The Regional Group and Solidarity-People Before Profit have agreed to swap their Leaders' Questions slots to the effect that Solidarity-People Before Profit will have a Leaders' Questions slot today and the Regional Group will have a Leaders' Questions slot tomorrow.
Deputy, this is Leaders' Questions-----
The Deputy's time is up.
I call Deputy Shortall.
That is true.
Deputy Shortall, please let the Taoiseach answer.
Thank you Taoiseach. Time is up.
The Taoiseach and Deputy Shortall might have a conversation outside. This is Leaders' Questions and we have criteria to adhere to. I call Deputy Boyd Barrett.
Seanad Éireann has passed the Criminal Justice (Enforcement Powers) (Covid-19) Bill 2020, without amendment.
The House has agreed that for the duration of the emergency only the rapporteur's report of the Order of Business will not be read out but will be taken as read. Arising from that, there are three proposals to put to the House today. Is the proposal for dealing with today's business agreed?
This matter was the subject of some debate at the Business Committee. Does a member of the Government wish to respond?
We cannot have a detailed debate on the matter. The Deputy has made his point.
The Taoiseach, without interruption.
Is the proposal for dealing with Wednesday's business agreed to?
I call Deputy Mac Lochlainn.
Does anybody else wish to contribute? I have to say I am somewhat at a loss, and the way they vote is a matter for Members, because we are actively engaged in pursuing and investigating the proposals made for a return. I do not understand what that has got to do with the Order of Business but it is the Deputy's prerogative.
