Lords division · 19 Jun 2003 · No. 1

Licensing Bill [HL]

It was moved by the Lord McIntosh of Haringey that this House do agree with the Commons in their Amendment No. 2; then it was moved by the Lord Redesdale to leave out “agree” and insert “disagree”; which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the House divided:

The Not Contents have it

Majority 4

Contents: 113 Not Contents: 117

At a glance The Not Contents won by a margin of 4 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 Roper (Content), Lord Shutt of Greetland (Content), Baroness Crawley (Not Content), Lord Davies of Oldham (Not Content).

Every vote

Contents (111)

Not Contents (115)

Tellers (4)
