Lords division · 6 May 2003 · No. 1

Extradition Bill

It was moved by the Viscount Bledisloe, as an amendment to the motion that the bill be committed to a Grand Committee, at end to insert “, save for Part 1 which shall be committed to a Committee of the Whole House”; which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the House divided:

The Not Contents have it

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 Peyton of Yeovil (Content), Viscount Bledisloe (Content), Lord Grocott (Not Content), Lord Roper (Not Content).
