These are the proposals arising from the concerns raised on the Order of Business yesterday. They have been agreed by the Business Committee. Do I take it they are acceptable to the House? Are they agreed? Agreed.
On prevailing side: this member voted with the winning side in 312 of 313 decisive votes (0 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.
This is the point of the site: contributions keep the party held on the day, not the one held now.
