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

What was decided

The majority voted in favour of a motion "That the question be put." In other words, they voted to speed things along by voting on the question immediately rather than discussing it any further.
