Lords division · 22 Jun 2000 · No. 2

Child Support, Pensions and Social Security Bill

It was moved by the Earl Russell to leave out Clause 16; which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the House divided:

The Not Contents have it

Majority 38

Contents: 66 Not Contents: 104

At a glance The Not Contents won by a margin of 38 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 Goodhart (Content), Earl Russell (Content), Lord Carter (Not Content), The Lord McIntosh of Haringey (Not Content).
