Lords division · 5 Feb 2004 · No. 1

Planning and Compulsory Purchase Bill

It was moved by the Baroness Hanham, after Clause 49, to insert the new Clause (Abolition of deemed planning permission); which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the Committee divided:

The Not Contents have it

Majority 4

Contents: 89 Not Contents: 93

At a glance The Not Contents won by a margin of 4 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 Cope of Berkeley (Content), Baroness Seccombe (Content), Lord Davies of Oldham (Not Content), Lord Grocott (Not Content).

Every vote
