Lords division · 10 Oct 2000 · No. 2

Political Parties, Elections and Referendums Bill

It was moved by the Lord Mackay of Ardbrecknish, in Clause 12, page 9, line 1, to leave out paragraph (b); which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the Committee divided:

The Not Contents have it

Majority 69

Contents: 59 Not Contents: 128

At a glance The Not Contents won by a margin of 69 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 Burnham (Content), Lord Henley (Content), Lord Carter (Not Content), The Lord McIntosh of Haringey (Not Content).

Every vote

Contents (57)

Not Contents (126)
