Lords division · 6 Sep 2019 · No. 1

European Union (Withdrawal) (No. 6) Bill

Lord Forsyth of Drumlean moved amendment 1, in clause 1, page 2, line 14, to leave out from “2020” to end of line 20. The House divided:

The Not Contents have it

Majority 221

Contents: 47 Not Contents: 268

At a glance The Not Contents won by a margin of 221 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 Hamilton of Epsom (Content), Viscount Trenchard (Content), Lord McAvoy (Not Content), Lord Tunnicliffe (Not Content).
