Lords division · 6 Nov 2003 · No. 1

Health and Social Care (Community Health and Standards) Bill

It was moved by the Earl Howe to leave out Clause 1; which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the House divided:

The Contents have it

Majority 50

Contents: 150 Not Contents: 100

At a glance The Contents won by a margin of 50 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 Barker (Content), Lord Davies of Oldham (Not Content), Lord Grocott (Not Content).

Every vote

Contents (148)

Not Contents (98)

Tellers (4)
