Lords division · 18 Apr 2000 · No. 1

Financial Services and Markets Bill

It was moved by the Lord Kingsland, in Clause 20, page 9, line 31, at end to insert— (“( ) The activity carried on by way of business of giving or offering or agreeing to give advice (other than legal advice) to persons in their capacity as borrowers or potential borrowers on the terms of a loan or a proposed loan secured or to be secured on land or any other property shall be a regulated activity.”); which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the House divided:

The Not Contents have it

Majority 51

Contents: 93 Not Contents: 144

At a glance The Not Contents won by a margin of 51 votes. The Government's position was Not Content, and it won.

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 Burnham (Content), Lord Henley (Content), Lord Carter (Not Content), The Lord McIntosh of Haringey (Not Content).

Every vote

Contents (91)

Not Contents (142)
