Lords division · 8 Oct 2002 · No. 1

Animal Health Bill

It was moved by the Baroness Byford, in Clause 6, page 4, line 15, at end to insert “unless there are mitigating circumstances”; which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the Committee divided:

The Not Contents have it

Majority 25

Contents: 85 Not Contents: 110

At a glance The Not Contents won by a margin of 25 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), Baroness Seccombe (Content), Lord Grocott (Not Content), The Lord McIntosh of Haringey (Not Content).
