The time is up.
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.

The Deputy is in someone else's time.
Thank you, Deputy Ó Murchú. I call the Tánaiste to respond.

I thank the Deputy. Time is up.
I thank the Deputy. Before the Taoiseach responds, by way of information for new Members and those who are not aware, as I said yesterday, when we give details of a minor and it goes on the record, we must be cognisant that I expect it is with parental consent. We have to be cognisant of that minor reaching the age of majority and not agreeing with that. I caution that when Members use private details such as a diagnosis of autism in relation to minors I ask all Members to consider that.
It is not a reprimand. It is just so that everybody is aware of the consideration that needs to be given.
Thank you, Deputy.
Thank you, Deputy. Your time is up.
Thank you, Taoiseach. Your time is up.
Yes. You can come back in.
Deputy, your time is up. I ask the Taoiseach to respond.
Thank you, Deputy.
The Taoiseach's time is up. I call Deputy Cian O'Callaghan of the Social Democrats.
I thank the Taoiseach. You can come back in.
The Taoiseach's time is up.
Thank you, Deputy. Time is up. Just before the Taoiseach begins his response, I will mention that we will have a minute's silence after Leader's Questions to mark the anniversary of the invasion of Ukraine.
Later, we will have statements relating to the third anniversary of Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine. To mark that anniversary, I call the numbers to rise in their places for one minute to mark the third anniversary of the war in Ukraine.
We know move to Questions on Policy or Legislation. As usual, Members are asked stick to their times. There is one minute for questions and one minute for responses. We begin with Deputy Doherty.
Before the Taoiseach responds, I am going to stop the clock while I address this issue. Just to clarify matters, Deputy Lowry has written to me and has asked to make a statement. I have requested further information from him. I just want to let Deputy Doherty know that this is where the matter is at. I have not received the information yet. We can start the clock again.
