Baroness Miller of Chilthorne Domer moved amendment 4, after clause 5, to insert the new clause Information for inquests. The House divided:

The Contents have it

Contents: 158 Not Contents: 128

At a glance The Contents won by a margin of 30 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 Shutt of Greetland (Content), Lord Bassam of Brighton (Not Content), Lord Tunnicliffe (Not Content).

Every vote

Contents (156)

Not Contents (126)

Tellers (4)
