Lords division · 15 Jul 2004 · No. 3

Children Bill [HL]

It was moved by the Earl Howe, in Clause 8, page 7, line 20, at end to insert: “( ) a regional office of the National Asylum Support Service; ( ) the centre manager of an immigration removal centre; ( ) the Chief Immigration Officer at a port of entry;”; which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the House divided:

The Not Contents have it

Majority 9

Contents: 90 Not Contents: 99

At a glance The Not Contents won by a margin of 9 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), Baroness Farrington of Ribbleton (Not Content), Lord Grocott (Not Content).
