Lords division · 13 Jul 2009 · No. 1

Coroners and Justice Bill

Lord Lloyd of Berwick moved amendment 187, after clause 103, to insert the new clause Independent Commissioner for Terrorist Suspects. The Committee divided:

The Contents have it

Majority 42

Contents: 145 Not Contents: 103

At a glance The Contents won by a margin of 42 votes. The Government's position was Not Content, and it lost.

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: Baroness Seccombe (Content), Lord Lloyd of Berwick (Content), Lord Bassam of Brighton (Not Content), Lord Tunnicliffe (Not Content).

Every vote

Contents (143)

Not Contents (101)
