I believe so. I think actually they said prior to the event they wouldn't use it last time (which was a very shitty thing to do anyway - as we saw ill MPs wheeled into the chamber). But this was different - the whips office said that it would be honoured and they reneged, giving Jo Swinson's side of the vote no opportunity to address the disparity. I don't think many buy this was any kind of 'honest' mistake for one moment - there's obviously not even 'honour among thieves' any more...
EDIT: found article on the last time - https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2018/jun/21/sick-mp-vote-wheelchair-commons-system-archaic

Didn't the Tories ignore this recently?
