Summary

Edit

The majority voted in favour of disagreeing with an amendment to the usual second reading motion, which is That the bill be read for a second time (parliamentary jargon for agreeing with the main idea of a bill). This means that the amendment failed.

Amendment text

That all words after "That" be omitted with a view to substituting the following words:

"whilst not declining to give the bill a second reading, the House notes that:

(1) despite promising to streamline reporting in the charity sector, this government is instead pursuing changes to charity law that could stop charities and churches from speaking up for core principles and articles of faith in civil society, limiting their freedom of political communication and participation in our democratic system; and

(2) while the Government boasts about its multinational tax measures, it has failed to curtail the use of tax havens and tax avoidance schemes by multinational corporations".

Votes Passed by a small majority

Nobody rebelled against their party.
