Lords division · 3 Jul 2003 · No. 1

Railways and Transport Safety Bill

It was moved by the Baroness Scott of Needham Market, after Clause 108, to insert the new Clause (The National Trails); which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the House divided:

The Contents have it

Majority 22

Contents: 132 Not Contents: 110

At a glance The Contents won by a margin of 22 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: Baroness Scott of Needham Market (Content), Baroness Thomas of Walliswood (Content), Lord Davies of Oldham (Not Content), Lord Grocott (Not Content).
