Lords division · 23 Oct 2001 · No. 1

Financial Services and Markets Tribunal Rules 2001

It was moved by the Lord Kingsland that this House calls upon Her Majesty’s Government to withdraw the Rules (S.I. 2001/2476) and replace them with Rules that preserve the confidentiality of proceedings in the Financial Services Appeals Tribunal; which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the House divided:

The Not Contents have it

Majority 11

Contents: 129 Not Contents: 140

At a glance The Not Contents won by a margin of 11 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 Cope of Berkeley (Content), Baroness Seccombe (Content), Lord Carter (Not Content), The Lord McIntosh of Haringey (Not Content).

Every vote
