Lords division · 1 Nov 2006 · No. 2

Police and Justice Bill

It was moved by the Lord Kingsland, as an amendment to the Motion that this House do not insist on its Amendments 81 to 84 to which the Commons have disagreed, to leave out from “House” to end and insert “do insist on its Amendments 81 to 84.”; which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the House divided:

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), Lord Shutt of Greetland (Content), Lord Davies of Oldham (Not Content), Lord Grocott (Not Content).
