Homelessness Bill

It was moved by the Baroness Hanham, in Clause 1, page 1, line 6, at end insert: “( ) Any such review or homelessness strategy shall be included as an integral part of the wider housing strategy of each authority.”; which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the House divided:

The Not 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), Baroness Seccombe (Content), Lord Carter (Not Content), The Lord McIntosh of Haringey (Not Content).
