House of Lords Offices Committee Report

It was moved by the Lord Barnett, as an amendment to the motion of the Chairman of Committees that the 2nd Report from the Select Committee (HL Paper 16) be agreed to, at end to insert “with the exception of section 2”; which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the House divided:

The Not Contents have it

Majority 57

Contents: 86 Not Contents: 143

At a glance The Not Contents won by a margin of 57 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 Peyton of Yeovil (Content), Lord Barnett (Content), Lord Henley (Not Content), Lord Carter (Not Content).
