Lords division · 29 Nov 2000 · No. 1

Transport Bill

It was moved by the Lord Brabazon of Tara, as an amendment to the motion that this House do not insist on its Amendment No. 27 to which the Commons have disagreed and do agree with the Commons in their Amendment No. 27C in lieu thereof, to leave out the words after “House” and insert “do insist on its Amendment No. 27”; which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and 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: Baroness Hamwee (Content), Baroness Thomas of Walliswood (Content), Lord Carter (Not Content), The Lord McIntosh of Haringey (Not Content).
