Lords division · 4 Apr 2019 · No. 11

Closure motion on the amendment in the name of Lord Robathan

Lord Strasburger moved that the question, that the amendment in the name of Lord Robathan be agreed to, be now put. The House divided:

The Contents have it

Majority 177

Contents: 239 Not Contents: 62

At a glance The Contents won by a margin of 177 votes. The Government's position was Not Content, and it lost. This was not a whipped vote, so no party line applied.

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 McNicol of West Kilbride (Content), Baroness Wheeler (Content), Lord Robathan (Not Content), Viscount Trenchard (Not Content).
