Lords division · 15 Oct 2002 · No. 2

Enterprise Bill

It was moved by the Lord Phillips of Sudbury, in Clause 6, page 3, line 3, after “competition” to insert “within a context of social community and environmental responsibility”; which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the House divided:

The Not Contents have it

Majority 51

Contents: 75 Not Contents: 126

At a glance The Not Contents won by a margin of 51 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 Hodgson of Astley Abbotts (Content), Lord Phillips of Sudbury (Content), Lord Grocott (Not Content), The Lord McIntosh of Haringey (Not Content).
