Lords division · 29 Jan 2004 · No. 1

Gender Recognition Bill [HL]

It was moved by the Lord Goodhart, in Clause 4, page 3, line 9, to leave out subsections (2) and (3); which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the House divided:

The Not Contents have it

Majority 87

Contents: 33 Not Contents: 120

At a glance The Not Contents won by a margin of 87 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 Addington (Content), The Earl of Mar and Kellie (Content), Lord Davies of Oldham (Not Content), Lord Grocott (Not Content).
