Water Bill

Lord Grantchester moved amendment 89A, in clause 51, page 108, line 19, at end to insert: “( ) Prior to making any regulations under subsection (5), the Secretary of State shall require the Committee on Climate Change to provide current and projected estimates of the number of properties that would be eligible for: (a) inclusion in the Flood Reinsurance Scheme; (b) the value of levy required under section 53; and (c) the likelihood of an additional levy or contributions being needed from time to time. ( ) The Secretary of State shall use the advice of the Committee on Climate Change when prescribing a target number under section 58(1).” 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 Newby (Not Content).
