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

Please.
Thank you, Taoiseach.
Time is up. I call Deputy Ivana Bacik.
Thank you, Deputy.
It is not a back and forth, Deputy.
Deputy, please stick to your time. I call the Taoiseach.
I thank the Taoiseach. I ask Members to welcome pupils from Kilrane National School who are members of the Blue Star programme. They are here in the Public Gallery today. We missed a few of them. Welcome everybody.
Taoiseach, they brought some strawberries from Danescastle that I might share.
In Wexford, yes. I call Deputy Catherine Callaghan.
The Deputy can go back to the Taoiseach if she is not happy.
Two Deputies are left. We are out of time. I will ask the Deputies to briefly state their questions. We will have a combined response from the Taoiseach.
The Deputy might need to engage further.
Thank you, Deputy Stanley.
I call Deputy Catherine Connolly.
I know but, at the same time-----
Thank you, Deputy.
Excuse me. The Deputy is right.
You are way over your time, Minister.
I take it it is all relevant, Deputy.
The Minister will tell us, I am sure.
