On an Opposition Day the largest opposition party chooses the topic of debate. The vote is symbolic, it doesn't change the law, but it forces the government to publicly take a position on the opposition's choice of question.
Totals are Parliament’s official count, which does not include the tellers. Parliament’s published list names 97 of the 99 Aye voters and 290 of the 291 No voters; tellers are listed and marked but not counted.
