Lords division · 21 Oct 2003 · No. 2

Hunting Bill

It was moved by the Lord Mancroft, after Clause 1, to insert the new Clause (Registered hunting); which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the Committee divided:

The Contents have it

Majority 212

Contents: 261 Not Contents: 49

At a glance The Contents won by a margin of 212 votes. The Government's position was Not Content, and it lost. This was not a whipped vote, so no party line applied.

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 Mancroft (Content), Lord Donoughue (Content), Baroness Gould of Potternewton (Not Content), Lord Graham of Edmonton (Not Content).
