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 Williams of Trafford (Content), Lord Verdirame (Content), Lord Kennedy of Southwark (Not Content), Baroness Wheeler (Not Content).
