Lords division · 10 Jul 2002 · No. 1

Nationality, Immigration and Asylum Bill

It was moved by the Baroness Anelay of St Johns, in Clause 26, page 13, line 6, to leave out “may” and insert “shall”; which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the Committee divided:

The Not Contents have it

Majority 13

Contents: 81 Not Contents: 94

At a glance The Not Contents won by a margin of 13 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), Earl Russell (Content), Lord Grocott (Not Content), The Lord McIntosh of Haringey (Not Content).
