Lords division · 10 Jul 2003 · No. 2

Local Government Bill

It was moved by the Baroness Hanham, in Clause 104, page 60, line 7, to leave out paragraph (a); which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the House divided:

The Not Contents have it

Majority 45

Contents: 97 Not Contents: 142

At a glance The Not Contents won by a margin of 45 votes. The Government's position was Not Content, and it won.

How the parties voted

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 Cope of Berkeley (Content), Baroness Seccombe (Content), Lord Davies of Oldham (Not Content), Lord Grocott (Not Content).
