Lords division · 14 Oct 2003 · No. 1

Criminal Justice Bill

It was moved by the Baroness Anelay of St Johns, in Clause 216, page 127, line 7, to leave out from “a” to end of line 9 and insert “substantial risk of his committing further specified offences involving a significant risk of serious harm to members of the public”; which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the Committee divided:

The Contents have it

Majority 17

Contents: 137 Not Contents: 120

At a glance The Contents won by a margin of 17 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: Lord Cope of Berkeley (Content), Baroness Seccombe (Content), Lord Davies of Oldham (Not Content), Lord Grocott (Not Content).
