Lords division · 20 Apr 2004 · No. 5

Energy Bill [HL]

It was moved by the Baroness Miller of Hendon, after Clause 122, to insert the new Clause (Compliance with sections 32 to 32C of the 1989 Act); which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the House divided:

The Not Contents have it

Majority 30

Contents: 38 Not Contents: 68

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: Baroness Byford (Content), Lord Cope of Berkeley (Content), Lord Davies of Oldham (Not Content), Lord Grocott (Not Content).
