Lords division · 15 Jun 2009 · No. 2

Political Parties and Elections Bill

Lord Tyler moved amendment 2, after clause 3, to insert the new clause Review: the procedures for local referenda on recall for misconduct. The House divided:

The Not Contents have it

Majority 99

Contents: 49 Not Contents: 148

At a glance The Not Contents won by a margin of 99 votes. The Government's position was Not Content, and it won.

How the parties voted

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 Addington (Content), Lord Shutt of Greetland (Content), Lord Bassam of Brighton (Not Content), Lord Davies of Oldham (Not Content).

Every vote

Contents (47)

Not Contents (146)
