Lords division · 21 Jul 2014 · No. 1

Criminal Justice and Courts Bill

The question was put that clause 25 stand part of the bill. The Committee divided:

The Contents have it

Majority 69

Contents: 228 Not Contents: 159

At a glance The Contents won by a margin of 69 votes. The Government's position was Not Content, and it lost. This was not a whipped vote, so no party line applied.

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: The Earl of Courtown (Content), Baroness Eaton (Content), Lord Dholakia (Not Content), Lord Shutt of Greetland (Not Content).
