Lords division · 10 Jun 2021 · No. 1

Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development etc.) (England) (Amendment) Order 2021

Baroness Pinnock moved that a Humble Address be presented to Her Majesty praying that the Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development etc.) (England) (Amendment) Order 2021, laid before the House on 31 March, be annulled because it introduces a significant policy change without being subject to sufficient parliamentary scrutiny; it affects the ability of communities to have a say in important changes to their local areas; and it does not present an effective or sustainable solution to the housing crisis (SI 2021/428). The House divided:

The Not Contents have it

Majority 137

Contents: 104 Not Contents: 241

At a glance The Not Contents won by a margin of 137 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.
