Former MP for Gloucester
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.
The forecasts published in the Financial Statement and Budget Report 1970–71 contain estimates of expenditure, imports and gross domestic product at 1963 prices; forecasts of earnings and employment have never been provided.
My right hon. Friend took all these matters into account in his judgment, and he also took into account three years ago that it would be helpful to the House if it had the kind of information which the hon. Gentleman's Government never provided. He therefore provided that information, and I am sure that it has been very interesting and helpful to the House.
Actual total tax revenue in 1963–64 was £6,649 million. The comparable estimated figure for 1970–71 at constant prices is £10,379 million. The estimated total revenue for 1970–71 at current prices is £15,582 million.
