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.
Party over time
This is the point of the site: contributions keep the party held on the day, not the one held now.

In fairness Deputy Kehoe, that is not a point of information and you are around here long enough to know it is not. We move now to No. a 13. I put it to Members that it is now 12.14 a.m. The Order of Business envisages one hour and 25 minutes debate with the Minister for Education and Skills on the opening of schools and calculated grades. We had one hour and 30 minutes, I think, with the Minister this morning. We then have a further 48 minutes with Topical Issue Matters. I notice many Members are leaving. That is …

Ceisteanna ar Reachtaíocht a Gealladh - Questions on Promised Legislation
We will move to Questions on Promised Legislation. Before the clock starts ticking, I want to advise Members that 37 Deputies have indicated. A number of those have been carried forward from yesterday. We will start with the party leaders and group leaders. It is highly unlikely we will get to all 37 speakers but I ask Deputies to be concise. I call Deputy McDonald.
