Jimmy Hood MP, Lanark and Hamilton East did not vote.

The majority of MPs voted in favour of allowing same sex couples to marry.

  • (1) the payment out of money provided by Parliament of—
  • (a) any expenditure incurred under or by virtue of the Act by a person holding office under Her Majesty or by a government department, and
  • (b) any increase attributable to the Act in the sums payable under any other Act out of money so provided, and
