Lords division · 21 Jun 2000 · No. 1

Utilities Bill

It was moved by the Baroness Buscombe, in Clause 47, page 50, line 11, after (“negligence”) to insert (“or breach of contract”); which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the Committee divided:

The Not Contents have it

Majority 69

Contents: 61 Not Contents: 130

At a glance The Not Contents won by a margin of 69 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 Astor of Hever (Content), Earl of Northesk (Content), Lord Carter (Not Content), The Lord McIntosh of Haringey (Not Content).
