Lords division · 29 Jun 2021 · No. 1

Economic Partnership Agreement between the United Kingdom and the Republic of Cameroon

Lord Grantchester moved that this House regrets the Economic Partnership Agreement between the United Kingdom and the Republic of Cameroon given (1) the human rights abuses committed by Pres-ident Biya’s regime, and (2) the lack of parliamentary scrutiny before trading arrangements came into force on 1 January. The House divided:

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.
