Recorded / "Named" voting

Question

Is it law that voting on annual budget and precept both require recorded/named votes?
Generally when a recorded/named vote is requested by a Council Member, do the names have to be read out? (If they aren't read out at the time then when the draft minutes are eventually circulated some members may argue that they didn't vote in the way the record shows, whereas there is much less room for confusion and much more transparency if the names and the respective voting by each member is announced).

Answer 1

Model Standing Order 3S:

Unless standing orders provide otherwise, voting on a question shall be by a show of hands. At the request of a councillor, the voting on any question shall be recorded so as to show whether each councillor present and voting gave his/her/their vote for or against that question. Such a request shall be made before moving on to the next item of business on the agenda.

The question is not entirely clear in regard to what you mean by "recorded and named" votes.

The outcome of all votes are recorded - that is what the minutes are for - a record of votes.

When a named vote is properly requested (according to relevant SOs) then the names are recorded.  

This doesn't apply one way or the other in relation solely to the annual budget / precept - it applies to ALL votes all of the time.

Answer 2

It depends on the council standing orders. If the model ones have been adopted the answer from Roundagaincoxon applies. In theory a council could write an article that says voting shall be on a show of hands and no further measures will apply.
