Lords division · 22 Oct 2003 · No. 2

Extradition Bill

It was moved by the Baroness Anelay of St Johns, in Clause 1, page 1, line 6, at end to insert “and only applies to persons who have been charged with or convicted of terrorist offences”; which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the House divided:

The Not Contents have it

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

Every vote

Contents (99)

Not Contents (161)

Tellers (4)
