Each row is one party. The bar shows how its MPs voted relative to a neutral midpoint — to the right = on-side with the majority position, to the left = opposed. The percentage figure is the share of that party’s MPs who took the same side: higher = more whip-disciplined, closer to 50% = a freer vote.

| Date | Motion | Aye | No | Carried |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 9 Jun 2026 | Steel Industry (Nationalisation) Bill Committee: New Clause 4 Aye: Support requiring parliamentary scrutiny of government financial assistance to the steel industry before it is provided, ensuring MPs can examine the costs, conditions, and purposes of any public money committed · No: Oppose imposing prior parliamentary approval requirements on financial assistance to steel, preferring to preserve ministerial flexibility to act quickly in support of a strategically important industry | 157 | 288 | No |
| 9 Jun 2026 | Steel Industry (Nationalisation) Bill Committee: Amendment 20 Aye: Support requiring NAO sign-off before public money is given to the nationalised steel industry, to protect taxpayers from open-ended financial commitments. · No: Oppose adding this constraint, backing the government's freedom to provide financial assistance to the steel industry without a mandatory NAO value-for-money check. | 91 | 293 | No |
| 9 Jun 2026 | Steel Industry (Nationalisation) Bill Committee: New Clause 12 Aye: Support capping public financial assistance to British Steel at £2.5 billion, arguing the government needs spending limits and a clear exit strategy rather than unlimited, open-ended state funding. · No: Reject the cap, backing the government's approach of retaining flexibility to provide whatever financial support British Steel requires without a fixed ceiling. | 96 | 297 | No |
| 8 Jun 2026 | Steel Industry (Nationalisation) Bill Committee: Amendment 12 Aye: Support limiting the government's nationalisation powers with a hard time limit, preventing open-ended state intervention in the steel industry without a clear exit strategy. · No: Oppose restricting the government's ability to renew intervention powers, arguing that long-term industrial policy requires flexibility and that removing this option would create uncertainty for the steel sector. | 83 | 267 | No |
| 8 Jun 2026 | Steel Industry (Nationalisation) Bill Committee: New Clause 8 Aye: Support requiring the government to be transparent about the financial risks and hidden liabilities taxpayers could inherit before any steel nationalisation goes ahead. · No: Oppose the additional parliamentary disclosure requirement, backing the government's position that it has sufficient accountability mechanisms and the Bill should proceed without this constraint. | 148 | 253 | No |

Pending — issue-to-service mapping
Mapping each Westminster issue to the equivalent council service bucket (so “Industrial Policy” → the matching service line on council finance, with the ranked-spend table this section wants) is its own taxonomy job. Council service spend lives on the council pages today; cross-cut by issue here in a follow-on pass.
