No, the next seven, including Deputy Boyd Barrett.
Verona Murphy
Rhetoric & votes →On prevailing side: this member voted with the winning side in 172 of 425 decisive votes (10 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.

Taoiseach, I do not know if you intend to take any other questions.

The Taoiseach has another 15 minutes. Did he answer Deputy McGuinness's question?

You did. I am sorry; I was distracted. I would like to welcome a member of the Down's syndrome community, Declan Moran, who is here with Deputy Albert Dolan. You are very welcome, Declan.

We have 15 to 16 minutes left. There are 20 Deputies to speak on the next question. I propose to divide the time remaining after the Taoiseach's opening statement between a number of Deputies.

The Taoiseach will have to try to be brief.

I appreciate that. The Taoiseach has the message.

Before the Taoiseach replies, could he maybe answer the other Deputies in writing? Sixteen Deputies did not get to ask questions. They might get some form of response from the Taoiseach.

Only if the Taoiseach needs less time. We cannot go over the 45 minutes provided.

The Taoiseach should go ahead. I suppose it is just a casualty of how interruptions affect the course of questions. To be fair, the Taoiseach cannot answer a question that has not been asked. We are delaying the answering process.

No. We cannot go over time. I do not set the time. I do not have that discretion.
