Lords division · 1 Nov 2006 · No. 6

Road Safety Bill [HL]

It was moved by the Lord Bradshaw, as an amendment to the motion that this House do agree with the Commons in their Amendment 16, to leave out “agree” and insert “disagree”; which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the House divided:

The Not Contents have it

Majority 9

Contents: 72 Not Contents: 81

At a glance The Not Contents won by a margin of 9 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: Baroness Seccombe (Content), The Earl of Mar and Kellie (Content), Baroness Crawley (Not Content), Lord Grocott (Not Content).
