Lords division · 31 Oct 2000 · No. 2

Criminal Justice and Court Services Bill

It was moved by the Baroness Blatch, in Clause 4, page 2, line 27, at end to insert (“probation”); which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the House divided:

The Contents have it

Contents: 147 Not Contents: 114

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).

Every vote

Contents (145)

Not Contents (112)

Tellers (4)
