Lords division · 25 Jan 2001 · No. 1

Regulatory Reform Bill [HL]

It was moved by the Lord Norton of Louth, in clause 5, page 4, line 26, to leave out paragraph (e) and insert: (“(e) publish an invitation to all interested parties to make submissions”); which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the Committee divided:

The Not Contents have it

Majority 13

Contents: 92 Not Contents: 105

At a glance The Not Contents won by a margin of 13 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 Henley (Content), Lord Norton of Louth (Content), Lord Carter (Not Content), The Lord McIntosh of Haringey (Not Content).

Every vote
