Lords division · 17 Nov 2008 · No. 1

Counter-Terrorism Bill

Lord Marlesford moved amendment 11, in Schedule 7, page 94, line 28, to leave out paragraph 20. The House divided:

The Not Contents have it

Majority 5

Contents: 125 Not Contents: 130

At a glance The Not Contents won by a margin of 5 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 Marlesford (Content), Lord Swinfen (Content), Lord Bassam of Brighton (Not Content), Lord Davies of Oldham (Not Content).
