Lords division · 13 Jul 2021 · No. 1

Procedure and Privileges

Lord Adonis moved, as an amendment to the motion in the name of the Senior Deputy Speaker, at end insert “but that this House believes it should sit from 1pm on Mondays, Tuesdays and Wednesdays.” The House divided:

The Not Contents have it

Majority 62

Contents: 234 Not Contents: 296

At a glance The Not Contents won by a margin of 62 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.
