Lords division · 19 May 2003 · No. 4

Courts Bill [HL]

It was moved by the Lord Goodhart, in Schedule 3, page 68, line 32, after “date” to insert “of the delivery to him”; which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the House divided:

The Not Contents have it

Majority 93

Contents: 34 Not Contents: 127

At a glance The Not Contents won by a margin of 93 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 Addington (Content), Lord Goodhart (Content), Lord Bassam of Brighton (Not Content), Lord Grocott (Not Content).
