Electronic Voting In The House
EDM number 1158 in 2008-09, proposed by Angus MacNeil on 23/03/2009.
Categorised under the topic of Parliamentary procedure.
That this House believes consideration should be given to allowing hon. Members a limited number of opportunities during each parliamentary year to vote remotely on divisions in the House when weather or technical issues associated with transportation effectively curtail the possibilities of attending divisions; and further believes that this could help the carbon footprint of hon. Members who on occasions fly many thousands of miles just to return for a division in the House.
This motion has been signed by a total of 15 MPs.
