Lords division · 20 Jun 2000 · No. 1

Terrorism Bill

It was moved by the Lord Goodhart, in Clause 19, page 9, line 12, at end to insert (“other than journalism”); which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the House divided:

The Not Contents have it

Majority 80

Contents: 65 Not Contents: 145

At a glance The Not Contents won by a margin of 80 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 Avebury (Content), Lord Goodhart (Content), Lord Carter (Not Content), The Lord McIntosh of Haringey (Not Content).
