Lords division · 2 Oct 2000 · No. 2

Criminal Justice and Court Services Bill

It was moved by the Baroness Blatch in Schedule 1, page 49, line 27, to leave out ("prescribed persons") and insert ("any person") ; which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the Committee divided:

The Not Contents have it

Majority 43

Contents: 71 Not Contents: 114

At a glance The Not Contents won by a margin of 43 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 Henley (Content), Baroness Seccombe (Content), Lord Carter (Not Content), The Lord McIntosh of Haringey (Not Content).

Every vote
