Former MP for Stockton-on-Tees
All MPs could vote remotely through an online voting tool. Votes cast remotely are shown as normal on the TheyWorkForYou voting record.
The option of online voting was removed, and a number of MPs may have been unable to vote because they were not physically able to attend.
The requirements on proxy voting were relaxed, allowing MPs to designate another MP to cast a vote on their behalf.
If an MP votes by proxy, it is effectively exactly the same as if they cast the vote in person and it shows up on their TheyWorkForYou voting record.
MPs are not required to designate a proxy, and may instead pair with an opposing MP to miss a vote. Parliament does not record when two MPs have come to a pairing arrangement, so on TheyWorkForYou, they will both appear to have been absent for the vote.
We will update this information if the situation changes. See more detail on votes during the COVID-19 period here.
66. asked the Minister of Transport whether his attention has been called to the meeting of the Road Traffic Commissioners of the Northern area held at Stockton on the 21st instant; whether he is aware that witnesses were subjected by members of the Commission to methods of cross-examination and comments of an unusual character; and whether he will have the matter fully inquired into?
Is the Minister aware that the witness referred to is practically charged with giving false evidence?
Is the Minister aware that the witness referred to has, within the last three days, furnished the Minister with a typescript of the whole of the evidence?
