Might be worth noting that this request came in soon after we sent an email saying 'you asked for environment-related votes; we did it'.
We can only show how MPs have voted on subjects MPs have actually held votes about.
I don't think there have been any divisions on cycling. If anyone points us to any votes where they think MPs supporting or opposing cycling infrastructure and investment would have voted in different ways we can consider them.
Parliament has debated cycling infrastructure funding and in October 2014 resolved :
That this House supports the recommendations of the All-Party Parliamentary Cycling Group’s report ‘Get Britain Cycling’; endorses the target of 10 per cent of all journeys being by bike by 2025, and 25 per cent by 2050; and calls on the Government to show strong political leadership, including an annual Cycling Action Plan, sustained funding for cycling and progress towards meeting the report’s recommendations.
That motion was passed without any MP objecting so without a vote.
We have a ticket #629 which notes:
Users sometimes expect TheyWorkForYou / PublicWhip to cover questions passed unanimously in a similar way to a vote; or are expecting there to have been votes on matters which have actually been passed without a vote.
I'll take a look at the user correspondence and follow up if it looks appropriate.
I have followed this up with the user. I'll close this as it's not something we can act on, unless we start monitoring things which are just nodded through without a vote.
