Lords division · 28 Jun 2004 · No. 1

Asylum and Immigration (Treatment of Claimants, etc.) Bill

It was moved by the Lord Avebury, in Clause 10, page 11, line 27, to leave out from beginning to end of line 14 on page 12; which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the House divided:

The Not Contents have it

Majority 84

Contents: 40 Not Contents: 124

At a glance The Not Contents won by a margin of 84 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), Lord Roper (Content), Lord Davies of Oldham (Not Content), Lord Grocott (Not Content).
