Lords division · 24 Apr 2001 · No. 1

Health and Social Care Bill

It was moved by the Earl Howe, before Clause 12, to insert the new Clause (Reform of Community Health Councils); which being objected to, the question was put thereupon and the House divided:

The Contents have it

Majority 41

Contents: 162 Not Contents: 121

At a glance The Contents won by a margin of 41 votes. The Government's position was Not Content, and it lost.

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 Henley (Content), Lord Roper (Content), Lord Carter (Not Content), The Lord McIntosh of Haringey (Not Content).

Every vote

Contents (160)

Not Contents (119)

Tellers (4)
