“Not recorded voting” is everyone eligible who isn't recorded as Aye or No, for example absent, paired, or presiding.

The majority voted in favour of a motion to speed things along. In parliamentary jargon, they voted to "put the question", which means debate has to stop and the question needs to be voted on immediately.
