Lords division · 25 Oct 2010 · No. 2

Terrorist Asset-Freezing etc. Bill [HL]

Lord Judd moved amendment 23A, in clause 31, page 15, line 29, at end to insert: “( ) A person may not be appointed under subsection (1) unless— (a) the Secretary of State lays a report before both Houses of Parliament which recommends the person and sets out the process by which he was chosen, (b) a Minister of the Crown tables a motion in both Houses to approve the report laid under this subsection, and appoint the person, and (c) such a motion is agreed by a resolution of both Houses of Parliament.” The House divided:

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).
