Lords division · 22 Jan 2002 · No. 1

European Communities (Amendment) Bill

It was moved by the Lord Howell of Guildford, in Clause 1, page 1, line 12, at end to insert “and the Declarations adopted by the Conference (other than Declaration 23(5))”; which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the House divided:

The Not Contents have it

Majority 62

Contents: 115 Not Contents: 177

At a glance The Not Contents won by a margin of 62 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 Grocott (Not Content), The Lord McIntosh of Haringey (Not Content).
