Lords division · 9 Oct 2006 · No. 1

Police and Justice Bill

It was moved by the Baroness Harris of Richmond, in Schedule 2, page 88, line 31, to leave out paragraphs 26 to 28; which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the House divided:

The Contents have it

Majority 19

Contents: 144 Not Contents: 125

At a glance The Contents won by a margin of 19 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 Shutt of Greetland (Content), Lord Evans of Temple Guiting (Not Content), Lord Grocott (Not Content).

Every vote

Contents (142)
