Lords division · 28 Oct 2002 · No. 4

Enterprise Bill

It was moved by the Lord Hunt of Wirral, after Clause 271, to insert the new Clause (Commission of a body to study effects of Act); which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the House divided:

The Not Contents have it

Majority 42

Contents: 61 Not Contents: 103

At a glance The Not Contents won by a margin of 42 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), Lord Rotherwick (Content), Lord Grocott (Not Content), The Lord McIntosh of Haringey (Not Content).
