Lords division · 25 Mar 2004 · No. 8

Planning and Compulsory Purchase Bill

It was moved by the Lord Hanningfield to leave out Clause 42; which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the House divided:

The Contents have it

Majority 20

Contents: 107 Not Contents: 87

At a glance The Contents won by a margin of 20 votes. The Government's position was Not Content, and it lost.

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).
