I am in the middle of giving the result of the vote on the amendment to the motion. Given the very high level of abstentions on the division on this very important matter relating to the Special Criminal Court, I call for a vote on the amendment other than by electronic means. The question has been put that we have a vote on the amendment by other than electronic means.
The question is, "That the motion be agreed to." As 31 Members of Dáil Éireann have abstained on the vote on a motion regarding the Special Criminal Court, I ask that the vote be carried out by other than electronic means. There is no provision for taking the vote in the manner the Deputy has requested, given the result of the electronic vote. I want to record my disgust that 31 Members of Dáil Éireann abstained in a vote on a motion on the Special Criminal Court.

Party shown is the one each member held on 2022-06-29, frozen by a dated join — not their party today. The Oireachtas API publishes no date of birth and returns an empty gender field for every member in this period, so no age or gender breakdown is shown.
