Lords division · 6 Jan 2025 · No. 1
National Insurance Contributions (Secondary Class 1 Contributions) Bill
Baroness Kramer moved, as an amendment to the motion that the bill be read a second time, at end to insert “but that, while recognising the need to rebuild public services and finances, this House regrets that the Bill risks worsening pressures in the NHS and social care by placing costs on GPs and dentists, social care providers and hospices; increases burdens on small businesses, early years providers, universities and charities; and penalises part-time work, and puts jobs and economic growth at risk”. 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: Baroness Humphreys (Content), Lord Stoneham of Droxford (Content), Baroness Anderson of Stoke-on-Trent (Not Content), Baroness Wheeler (Not Content).
