  --- MOTION EFFECT ---
  
  
  
  
  @ MP voted aye to prevent a proposed law requiring full details of tickets to be provided on secondary ticketing platforms to being used to prevent the resale of tickets below their face value. 
  @ MP voted no to allow a proposed law requiring full details of tickets to be provided on secondary ticketing platforms to be used to prevent the resale of tickets below their face value.  
  
  
  The majority of MPs voted to allow a proposed law requiring full details of tickets to be provided on secondary ticketing platforms to be used to prevent the resale of tickets below their face value.  
  
  MPs were considering the Consumer Rights Bill[1][2]
  
  This vote took place while the motion under discussion was:
  
  :That this House disagrees with Lords amendment 12.
  
  However it appears the words:
  
  :I will push the amendment to the vote.
  
  were taken as moving the amendment and the vote was held as if amendment (a) to Lords amendment 12 had been moved and the subject of the motion was:
  
  :Amendment (a) proposed to Lords amendment 12 
  
  Lords amendment 12[3] sought to introduce a new clause to the bill titled '''Secondary ticketing platforms''' subclause (1) of which stated:
  
  :Secondary ticketing operators must, on the website on which tickets are offered for sale or transfer, provide information concerning the sellers of tickets so that sellers may be easily identified. 
  
  The clause also required the publication of "all relevant information"  relating to the ticket, including its face value and details of the seat (if any) the ticket relates to.
  
  Amendment (a) to the Lords amendment[4] stated:
  :Page  4,  line  7,  at end insertâ
  :â(8A)    
  :Information provided by virtue of this section may not be used by the event organiser or any agent acting on its behalf toâ
  :(a) prevent resale of a ticket to another individual at or below face value, including reasonable transfer costs; or
  :(b) cancel or otherwise render invalid a ticket which is known to have been resold at or below face value, including reasonable transfer costs; except where the transfer is to a person who, because of their characteristics, would not be entitled to use such a ticket.â
