Thank you. I call Deputy Dempsey.
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.

We are now into two Private Members' Bills, the first of which is the Road Traffic (Amendment) (Jax’s Law) Bill 2026, being introduced by Deputies Barry Ward and Emer Currie.
