Lords division · 9 May 2000 · No. 1

Financial Services and Markets Bill

It was moved by the Lord Kingsland, in Clause 151, page 73, line 2, at end to insert (“together with an explanation of the methodology employed in carrying out the analysis”); which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the House divided:

The Not Contents have it

Majority 57

Contents: 92 Not Contents: 149

At a glance The Not Contents won by a margin of 57 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 Burnham (Content), Lord Henley (Content), Lord Carter (Not Content), The Lord McIntosh of Haringey (Not Content).

Every vote

Contents (90)

Not Contents (147)
