Lords division · 27 Mar 2003 · No. 1

Courts Bill [HL]

It was moved by the Lord Hunt of Wirral, in Clause 87, page 42, line 10, at end to insert: “( ) The Lord Chancellor may not under this section seek to recover judicial salaries.”; which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the Committee divided:

The Contents have it

Majority 3

Contents: 90 Not Contents: 87

At a glance The Contents won by a margin of 3 votes. The Government's position was Not Content, and it lost.

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 Vivian (Content), Lord Grocott (Not Content), The Lord McIntosh of Haringey (Not Content).

Every vote
