Lords division · 26 Oct 2000 · No. 3

It was moved by the Lord Brett, after Clause 64, to insert the new Clause (Pension entitlement of present and former employees of NATS); which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the House divided:

The Contents have it

Contents: 78 Not Contents: 77

At a glance The Contents won by a margin of 1 vote. 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 Brett (Content), Lord Lea of Crondall (Content), Lord Carter (Not Content), The Lord McIntosh of Haringey (Not Content).

Every vote

Contents (76)
