Lords division · 22 Oct 2002 · No. 3

Animal Health Bill

It was moved by the Lord Greaves, in Clause 4, page 3, line 11, at end to insert: “( ) This Part shall not come into effect unless an order has been laid before, and approved by, a resolution of each House of Parliament.”; which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the House divided:

The Not Contents have it

Contents: 99 Not Contents: 103

At a glance The Not Contents won by a margin of 4 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: The Countess of Mar (Content), Lord Greaves (Content), Lord Grocott (Not Content), The Lord McIntosh of Haringey (Not Content).
