Lords division · 1 Apr 2004 · No. 1

European Parliamentary and Local Elections (Pilots) Bill

It was moved by the Lord Rennard, as an amendment to the motion that this House do not insist on amendment 1F and agree with amendment 1J in lieu thereof, to leave out from “House” to end and insert “do insist on its amendment 1F but do agree with the Commons in their amendment 1J”; which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the House divided:

The Not Contents have it

Majority 30

Contents: 108 Not Contents: 138

At a glance The Not Contents won by a margin of 30 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), Lord Roper (Content), Lord Davies of Oldham (Not Content), Lord Grocott (Not Content).

Every vote

Contents (106)
