Lords division · 16 May 2002 · No. 1

National Health Service Reform and Health Care Professions Bill

It was moved by the Baroness Northover, after Clause 2, to insert the new Clause “Duty of Primary Care Trusts, NHS Trusts and Strategic Health Authorities regarding education, training and research”; which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the House divided:

The Contents have it

Majority 23

Contents: 131 Not Contents: 108

At a glance The Contents won by a margin of 23 votes. The Government's position was Not Content, and it lost.

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 Astor of Hever (Content), Baroness Northover (Content), Lord Carter (Not Content), The Lord McIntosh of Haringey (Not Content).

Every vote
