Lords division · 20 May 2002 · No. 1

Export Control Bill

It was moved by the Lord Joffe, after Clause 5, to insert the new Clause “Trade Controls: acts outside the United Kingdom”; which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the House divided:

The Not Contents have it

Majority 58

Contents: 71 Not Contents: 129

At a glance The Not Contents won by a margin of 58 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.

Tellers: Lord Joffe (Content), Lord Redesdale (Content), Lord Carter (Not Content), The Lord McIntosh of Haringey (Not Content).
