Lords division · 15 Sep 2003 · No. 5

Criminal Justice Bill

It was moved by the Lord Kingsland, in Clause 90, page 60, line 40, to leave out paragraph (b); which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the Committee divided:

The Contents have it

Majority 21

Contents: 102 Not Contents: 81

At a glance The Contents won by a margin of 21 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).

Every vote

Contents (100)

Not Contents (79)
