  @ MP voted no not to express support for the EU-Singapore Free Trade Agreement.
  
  The majority of MPs voted to express support for the European Union - Singapore Free Trade Agreement.
  
  The motion supported by the majority of MPs in this vote was:
  
  :That this House 
  :''takes note'' of [http://data.consilium.europa.eu/doc/document/ST-7966-2018-INIT/en/pdf European Union Document No. 7966/18] on the signature of the proposed agreement along with Addenda numbered 1 to 13 and [http://data.consilium.europa.eu/doc/document/ST-7967-2018-INIT/en/pdf European Union Document No. 7967/18] on the conclusion of the proposed agreement along with Addenda numbered 1 to 13; 
  :''welcomes'' the proposed signature and conclusion, on behalf of the EU, of the EU-Singapore Free Trade Agreement; 
  :''further notes'' [http://data.consilium.europa.eu/doc/document/ST-7973-2018-INIT/en/pdf European Union Document No. 7973/18] on the signature of the proposed agreement along with Addenda numbered 1 to 2 and [http://data.consilium.europa.eu/doc/document/ST-7974-2018-INIT/en/pdf European Union Document No. 7974/18] on the conclusion of the proposed agreement along with Addenda numbered 1 to 2; and 
  :''further notes'' the signature and conclusion of the proposed Investment Protection Agreement between the EU and its Member States and Singapore.
  
  Unlike other votes, such as that on [https://www.publicwhip.org.uk/division.php?date=2018-07-18&house=commons&number=227 Relations Between the European Union, its Member States and Cuba] this vote is not on legislation which makes the Free Trade Agreement a European Union Treaty; so this vote is not given as much weight as others on the subject of EU trade agreements.
