Lords division · 20 Jul 2022 · No. 1

Slavery and Human Trafficking (Definition of Victim) Regulations 2022

Then Lord Coaker moved, as an amendment to the motion to approve the Regulations, at the end insert “but this House regrets that the draft Regulations have not been subject to consultation, and give rise to concerns that the changes will narrow the ability of victims to be identified and to access support”. The House divided:

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 Kennedy of Southwark (Content), Baroness Wilcox of Newport (Content), The Earl of Courtown (Not Content), Lord Ashton of Hyde (Not Content).
