Lords division · 19 Jul 2010 · No. 1

Child Trust Funds (Amendment No. 3) Regulations 2010

Lord Davies of Oldham moved, as an amendment to the motion that the regulations be approved, at end to insert "but this House regrets that the Regulations will end a successful savings scheme; will not protect those on the lowest incomes and those with disabilities; will widen inequality and fail the test of fairness; and will not foster a savings culture in the next generation." The House divided:

The Not Contents have it

Majority 35

Contents: 154 Not Contents: 189

At a glance The Not Contents won by a margin of 35 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 Bassam of Brighton (Content), Lord Tunnicliffe (Content), Baroness Anelay of St Johns (Not Content), Lord Shutt of Greetland (Not Content).
