“Inactivity” measures how often a deputy did not cast a For or Against vote on motions they could have voted on — whether absent, or present but not registering, abstaining, or not pressing. A non-vote is not neutral: a motion passes only with a majority of For votes, so being present yet not voting effectively withholds support — counting, in practice, the same as a vote against. Attendance shows how often a deputy at least registered for the sitting.
