Lords division · 30 Jan 2003 · No. 1

Police (Northern Ireland) Bill [HL]

It was moved by the Lord Maginnis of Drumglass to leave out Clause 10; which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the House divided:

The Not Contents have it

Majority 22

Contents: 100 Not Contents: 122

At a glance The Not Contents won by a margin of 22 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 Maginnis of Drumglass (Content), Lord Grocott (Not Content), The Lord McIntosh of Haringey (Not Content).
