I'm sure there are technicalities to it, but the Australian parliament allowed a new vote just this year.[0] In short, the governing party voted in favour of a motion that "It's okay to be white". The vote failed to pass, but the next day (amid condemnation) it was claimed that the vote was due to an administrative error. A new vote was held and the motion was defeated again, unanimously. I say there may be technicalities as apparently the vote was a "recommittal"[1], but on the face of it the parliament allowed a new vote because the members claimed to have made a mistake.
