Lords division · 13 Feb 2001 · No. 2

Regulatory Reform Bill [HL]

It was moved by the Lord Kingsland, in Clause 1, page 2, line 25, to leave out (“the Minister thinks”) and to insert (“is”); which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the House divided:

The Not Contents have it

Majority 73

Contents: 79 Not Contents: 152

At a glance The Not Contents won by a margin of 73 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 Burnham (Content), Lord Henley (Content), Lord Carter (Not Content), The Lord McIntosh of Haringey (Not Content).

Every vote

Contents (77)

Not Contents (150)

Tellers (4)
