Lords division · 8 Jun 2004 · No. 5

Guidance issued under section 182 of the Licensing Act 2003 and Guidance to Police Officers on the Operation of Closure Powers in Part 8 of the Licensing Act 2003

It was moved by the Lord Redesdale that this House regrets Her Majesty’s Government’s decision to lay the draft Guidance on 23rd March, before they have laid Orders under sections 55, 92, 100, 110 and 133 of and Schedule 8 to the Licensing Act 2003, which set out the level of fees which applicants for licences will be required to pay licensing authorities; which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the House divided:

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 Roper (Content), Lord Redesdale (Content), Lord Davies of Oldham (Not Content), Lord Grocott (Not Content).
