Lords division · 31 Oct 2000 · No. 3

Criminal Justice and Court Services Bill

It was moved by the Baroness Blatch, in Schedule 1, page 52, line 10, at end to insert: (“( ) The chief officer is to be appointed by the Board with the approval of Mr Secretary of State.”); which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the House divided:

The Contents have it

Majority 64

Contents: 185 Not Contents: 121

At a glance The Contents won by a margin of 64 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 Henley (Content), Lord Phillips of Sudbury (Content), Lord Carter (Not Content), The Lord McIntosh of Haringey (Not Content).
