Lords division · 17 Jul 2002 · No. 1

Nationality, Immigration and Asylum Bill

It was moved by the Baroness Anelay of St Johns, in Clause 58, page 32, line 19, to leave out “may” and insert “shall”; which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the Committee divided:

The Contents have it

Majority 5

Contents: 116 Not Contents: 111

At a glance The Contents won by a margin of 5 votes. The Government's position was Not Content, and it lost.

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: Viscount Bridgeman (Content), Baroness Seccombe (Content), Lord Grocott (Not Content), The Lord McIntosh of Haringey (Not Content).
