Lords division · 9 Nov 2010 · No. 1

Public Bodies Bill [HL]

Lord Hunt of Kings Heath moved, as an amendment to the commitment motion, to leave out “Committee of the Whole House” and insert “Select Committee”. The House divided:

The Not Contents have it

Majority 37

Contents: 151 Not Contents: 188

At a glance The Not Contents won by a margin of 37 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).
