Lords division · 1 Nov 2000 · No. 3

Countryside and Rights of Way Bill

It was moved by the Baroness Byford, in Schedule 2, page 65, line 23, at end to insert: (“ . Section 2(1) does not apply to a person who, between the hours of sunset and sunrise, takes on to access land, or allows to enter or remain on access land, any dog.”); which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the House divided:

The Not Contents have it

Majority 28

Contents: 22 Not Contents: 50

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).
