Lords division · 28 Jun 2006 · No. 3

Government of Wales Bill

It was moved by the Lord Kingsland, in Clause 92, page 50, line 37, at end to insert “, adopted by resolution of each House of Parliament”; which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the House divided:

The Not Contents have it

Majority 60

Contents: 118 Not Contents: 178

At a glance The Not Contents won by a margin of 60 votes. The Government's position was Not Content, and it won.

The party breakdowns are our own analysis of the official voting records (recorded votes only; they do not describe the formal whip). How we work this out.

Peers attend divisions ad hoc, so there is no did-not-vote list. Tellers are counted in the Content and Not Content totals, unlike in the Commons.

Tellers: Lord Cope of Berkeley (Content), Baroness Seccombe (Content), Lord Evans of Temple Guiting (Not Content), Lord Grocott (Not Content).

Every vote

Contents (116)

Not Contents (176)

Tellers (4)
