Lords division · 26 Jul 2000 · No. 2

Insolvency [HL]

It was moved by the Lord Kingsland in Schedule 1, page 14, to leave out line 19; which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the House divided:

The Not Contents have it

Majority 76

Contents: 49 Not Contents: 125

At a glance The Not Contents won by a margin of 76 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 Astor of Hever (Content), Earl Attlee (Content), Lord Carter (Not Content), The Lord McIntosh of Haringey (Not Content).

Every vote

Contents (47)

Not Contents (123)
