Anti-terrorism, Crime and Security Bill

It was moved by the Baroness Buscombe, in Clause 104, page 63, line 7, at end to insert “for purposes prescribed in section 103(6)”; which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the House divided:

The Contents have it

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

Every vote
