  @ MP voted no not to exclude the period between 31 July and 1 December 2017 from the potential dates for a referendum on the UK's membership of the EU  
  
  The majority of MPs voted not to exclude the period between 31 July and 1 December 2017 from the potential dates for a referendum on the UK's membership of the EU. 
  
  The amendment which was the subject of this vote was moved by Mike Gapes MP and it stated:
  
  :page 1, line 4, after â2017â, insert
  
  :âand not between 31 July and 1 December 2017â
  
  The European Union (Referendum) Bill would have continued to require a referendum be held by the end of 2017 regardless of the result of this vote and if this particular period was included or not.
