Lords division · 29 Apr 2004 · No. 1

Justice (Northern Ireland) Bill [HL]

It was moved by the Lord Kingsland to disagree with the Commons in their amendment 1; which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the House divided:

The Not Contents have it

Majority 60

Contents: 74 Not Contents: 134

At a glance The Not Contents won by a margin of 60 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), Baroness Seccombe (Content), Lord Grocott (Not Content), Lord Triesman (Not Content).

Every vote

Contents (72)

Not Contents (132)
