Lords division · 5 Nov 2003 · No. 2

Criminal Justice Bill

It was moved by the Lord Ackner, in Clause 149, page 89, line 35, to leave out paragraph (c); which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the House divided:

The Not Contents have it

Majority 101

Contents: 12 Not Contents: 113

At a glance The Not Contents won by a margin of 101 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 Renton (Content), Baroness Stern (Content), Lord Davies of Oldham (Not Content), Lord Grocott (Not Content).
