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.

If the Deputy is going to protest outside on Tuesday, protest outside but can we have a bit of order in here?
I want to make it clear that this matter was discussed at length in the Business Committee this morning. One of the decisions made was that when the matter comes back from the committee, whatever time is necessary to debate it in full will be provided here in the Chamber. I would be surprised, therefore, if there was to be any curtailment of the debate in the committee, where the details and intricacies of that legislation need to be looked at.
Exactly. That decision, unlike any decision that we have made before, was that whatever time is required will be provided here. I call Deputy Mick Barry.
We are out of time.
We cannot have a conversation about it, please.
Your time is up, Deputy.
Deputy Ó Murchú is next.

Deputy, we are returning to the strategic heckling approach. Please do not. Please stop heckling.
If the Government side would stop heckling as well, it would help. I call Deputy Bacik.
Please, let the Taoiseach answer.
Time is up, Deputy, please
Thank you, Deputy. The time is up.
