Lords division · 26 Apr 2004 · No. 6

Child Trust Funds Bill

It was moved by the Lord Newby, in Clause 3, page 2, line 33, at end to insert: “( ) Regulations shall not require account providers to provide equity-based accounts, and shall make provision for cash deposit accounts, including provision for such accounts provided by building societies.”; which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the House divided:

The Not Contents have it

Majority 75

Contents: 32 Not Contents: 107

At a glance The Not Contents won by a margin of 75 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 Harris of Richmond (Content), Baroness Walmsley (Content), Lord Grocott (Not Content), Lord Triesman (Not Content).
