Lords division · 26 Oct 2000 · No. 2

Transport Bill

It was moved by the Lord Brabazon of Tara, in Clause 43, page 29, line 8, at end to insert: (“( ) No direction to make a transfer scheme shall be given under subsection (1) before the first Session of the next Parliament after that in which this Act is passed.”); which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the House divided:

The Contents have it

Majority 22

Contents: 112 Not Contents: 90

At a glance The Contents won by a margin of 22 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: Lord Burnham (Content), Lord Henley (Content), Lord Carter (Not Content), The Lord McIntosh of Haringey (Not Content).
