Risk-based exclusion: amendment (o)

What this vote was about

The Commons was deciding how to handle MPs who face allegations of violent or sexual offences, under a proposed "risk-based exclusion" policy that could bar such an MP from the parliamentary estate while a case is dealt with. The main motion set the point at which a risk assessment would be triggered as when an MP has been charged with an offence. Amendment (o) sought to remove that "charged" wording, reverting to the earlier proposal that a risk assessment could begin at the earlier stage of arrest, a lower threshold that would allow protective action sooner. MPs passed amendment (o) by 170 votes to 169, one of the narrowest possible margins, so the arrest threshold was restored to the scheme.
