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.

Returning to the Government side, Deputy Dillon is sharing with Deputy Cahill.
I call Deputy Collins.
I call Deputies Pringle and Connolly, who are sharing time.
That does not happen too often.
I invite the Minister of State to respond to the debate.
When we concluded our previous consideration of this Bill, Deputy Colm Burke was in possession. As the Deputy has completed his contribution, I call Deputy Andrews.
I call Deputy Berry, who has a particular perspective on these issues.
The Deputy has 20 minutes.
Deputy Carol Nolan is sharing time with Deputy Danny Healy-Rae.
I thank Deputy McDonald. Her time is up.
The Taoiseach is way over time.
I ask Deputy Barry to allow the Taoiseach to continue without interruption.
I thank the Taoiseach. The time is up.
Deputy Barry, please. I call Deputy Fitzpatrick, on behalf of the Regional Group.
Time is up.
The House has agreed that, for the duration of the Covid-19 emergency only, the rapporteur's report of the Order of Business shall not be read out but shall be taken as read. There are three proposals to put to the House in accordance with that recommendation. Is the proposal for dealing with today's business agreed to?
I thank the Deputy.
Before we go any further, we can only have one contribution from each group. We cannot have multiple speakers. Does the Taoiseach wish to speak?
That is a well-established fact.
