Government of Wales Bill

It was moved by the Lord Roberts of Conwy, in Clause 104, page 58, line 16, to leave out from “Parliament” to end of line 23; which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the House divided:

The Contents have it

Majority 37

Contents: 142 Not Contents: 105

At a glance The Contents won by a margin of 37 votes. The Government's position was Not Content, and it lost.

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: Baroness Seccombe (Content), Lord Roberts of Llandudno (Content), Lord Evans of Temple Guiting (Not Content), Lord Grocott (Not Content).
