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 Hope of Craighead (Content), Lord Thomas of Cwmgiedd (Content), Lord Harlech (Not Content), Baroness Williams of Trafford (Not Content).
