“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 now put." In other words, they voted in favour of asking the question immediately rather than continuing to debate it.
