Lords division · 29 Oct 2002 · No. 3

Animal Health Bill

It was moved by the Countess of Mar, in the Schedule, page 13, line 32, at end to insert: “36BA Identification of phenotypic characteristics of genetically susceptible sheep The Secretary of State must take into account the phenotypic characteristics of any sheep before he applies a restriction notice under section 36C.”; which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the House divided:

The Not Contents have it

Majority 6

Contents: 110 Not Contents: 116

At a glance The Not Contents won by a margin of 6 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: Viscount Allenby of Megiddo (Content), The Countess of Mar (Content), Lord Grocott (Not Content), The Lord McIntosh of Haringey (Not Content).
