Lords division · 27 Feb 2003 · No. 3

Licensing Bill [HL]

It was moved by the Baroness Buscombe, in Clause 15, page 9, line 8, to leave out from “individual” to end of line 9 and insert “who has been nominated as the premises supervisor by the applicant for or holder of the premises licence and who has consented to act as such”; which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the House divided:

The Not Contents have it

Majority 2

Contents: 99 Not Contents: 101

At a glance The Not Contents won by a margin of 2 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: Baroness Seccombe (Content), Lord Redesdale (Content), Lord Grocott (Not Content), The Lord McIntosh of Haringey (Not Content).

Every vote

Contents (97)

Not Contents (99)
