Lords division · 4 Oct 2000 · No. 1

Criminal Justice and Court Services Bill

It was moved by the Baroness Blatch in Clause 27, page 12, line 38 to leave out ("either") and insert ("one") ; which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the Committee divided:

The Not Contents have it

Majority 31

Contents: 73 Not Contents: 104

At a glance The Not Contents won by a margin of 31 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 Burnham (Content), Lord Henley (Content), Lord Carter (Not Content), The Lord McIntosh of Haringey (Not Content).

Every vote

Contents (71)

Not Contents (102)

Tellers (4)
