Lords division · 28 Nov 2000 · No. 1

Criminal Justice and Court Services Bill

It was moved by the Lord Dholakia, as an amendment to the motion of the Lord Bassam of Brighton that this House do not insist on its Amendment 121 to which the Commons have disagreed and do agree to Amendment 121B in lieu thereof, to leave out the words after (“House”) and insert (“do insist on its Amendment 121”); which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the House divided:

The Not Contents have it

Majority 23

Contents: 116 Not Contents: 139

At a glance The Not Contents won by a margin of 23 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 Elton (Content), Lord Dholakia (Content), Lord Carter (Not Content), The Lord McIntosh of Haringey (Not Content).

Every vote

Contents (114)

Not Contents (137)

Tellers (4)
