Lords division · 8 May 2018 · No. 3

European Union (Withdrawal) Bill

Lord Alli moved amendment 110A, in clause 19, page 15, line 21, at end to insert: “(2B) But none of the remaining provisions may come into force until it is a negotiating objective of the Government to ensure that an international agreement has been made which enables the United Kingdom to continue to participate in the European Economic Area after exit day. (2C) Regulations under this Act may not repeal or amend subsection (2B).” 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: Lord Mendelsohn (Content), Lord Watts (Content), The Earl of Courtown (Not Content), Lord Taylor of Holbeach (Not Content).
