The vote to adopt the Commendation/Censure Act has failed.
The final tally is 14 in favour, 17 in opposition, with 8 abstentions.[1]
A spreadsheet of the vote is attached for your convenience.
[1] Non-Legislator @Omega was able to access the Voting Chamber and cast a vote. This was due to an oversight error which has since been corrected. The vote has been excluded from the final tally. Apologies for any confusion.
