Lords division · 8 Mar 2001 · No. 2

International Criminal Court Bill [HL]

It was moved by the Lord Lamont of Lerwick, in Clause 2, page 1, line 24, at end insert: (“( ) The Secretary of State shall not transmit the request if the charges brought against the person relate to an offence alleged to have been committed in a country whose democratically elected Government had, at the time of the arrest, agreed to an amnesty for all those who might otherwise be charged with ICC crimes during the period covered by the amnesty, and where the offence was committed in that country.”); which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the House divided:

The Not Contents have it

Majority 58

Contents: 30 Not Contents: 88

At a glance The Not Contents won by a margin of 58 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 Lamont of Lerwick (Content), Earl of Northesk (Content), Lord Carter (Not Content), The Lord McIntosh of Haringey (Not Content).
