Lords division · 8 Jun 2000 · No. 1

Postal Services Bill

It was moved by the Baroness Miller of Hendon, in Clause 4, page 2, line 34, after (“tariff”) to insert (“including first and second class pricing”); which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the Committee divided:

The Not Contents have it

Majority 72

Contents: 62 Not Contents: 134

At a glance The Not Contents won by a margin of 72 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).
