Lords division · 15 Sep 2003 · No. 4

Criminal Justice Bill

It was moved by the Lord Kingsland, in Clause 90, page 60, line 38, to leave out “or tends to show”; which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the Committee divided:

The Contents have it

Majority 23

Contents: 113 Not Contents: 90

At a glance The Contents won by a margin of 23 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: Viscount Bridgeman (Content), Baroness Seccombe (Content), Lord Davies of Oldham (Not Content), Lord Grocott (Not Content).
