Lords division · 10 Nov 2003 · No. 1

Health and Social Care (Community Health and Standards) Bill

It was moved by the Lord Warner, in Clause 31, page 13, line 21, at end to insert: “( ) In section 15 (establishment of Patients Forums), after subsection (2) there is inserted: “(1A) The Secretary of State shall also establish a Patients’ Forum for each NHS foundation trust, unless a resolution of the board of governors of the trust under section 18A has had effect. (1B) In relation to a Patients’ Forum established by virtue of subsection (1A) references in this Part to the trust, or NHS trust, for which it is established shall be read as references to the NHS foundation trust.””; which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the House divided:

The Not Contents have it

Majority 21

Contents: 106 Not Contents: 127

At a glance The Not Contents won by a margin of 21 votes. The Government's position was 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 Davies of Oldham (Content), Lord Grocott (Content), Lord Skelmersdale (Not Content), Lord Clement-Jones (Not Content).
