Lords division · 11 Mar 2004 · No. 4

Domestic Violence, Crime and Victims Bill [HL]

It was moved by the Baroness Anelay of St Johns, in Clause 11, page 7, line 39, at end to insert “but only when the sample count has, at a preparatory hearing before the trial which led to the conviction for the sample count, been linked in accordance with section 9 to the counts which might be tried without a jury”; which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the House divided:

The Not Contents have it

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).
