Representation of the People Bill: Reasoned Amendment to Second Reading

Rejected105 ayes · 410 noes

What the vote was about

This division was on a reasoned amendment to the Second Reading of the Representation of the People Bill. The bill proposes changes to how people are represented in Parliament, potentially affecting constituency boundaries or voting systems. At stake was the principle of the bill itself and whether it should proceed to further scrutiny.

Why this division is tracked here

Representation of the People Bill is a major constitutional matter affecting voting rights and electoral boundaries.
