Lords division · 13 Feb 2001 · No. 1

Regulatory Reform Bill [HL]

It was moved by the Baroness Buscombe, in Clause 1, page 1, line 13, to leave out (“the burden”) and to insert (“it is necessary to retain the burden and the burden to be retained”); which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the House divided:

The Not Contents have it

Majority 66

Contents: 83 Not Contents: 149

At a glance The Not Contents won by a margin of 66 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).
