Lords division · 6 Apr 2022 · No. 4

Elections Bill

Lord Dubs moved amendment 42, after clause 14, to insert the new clause Members of the House of Lords: voting at elections to the House of Commons. The house divided:

The Not Contents have it

Majority 115

Contents: 24 Not Contents: 139

At a glance The Not Contents won by a margin of 115 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.
