Lords division · 19 Jul 2004 · No. 1

Horserace Betting and Olympic Lottery Bill

It was moved by the Lord Moynihan, in Clause 8, page 5, line 24, to leave out paragraph (c); which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the House divided:

The Not Contents have it

Majority 41

Contents: 88 Not Contents: 129

At a glance The Not Contents won by a margin of 41 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 Davies of Oldham (Not Content), Lord Grocott (Not Content).

Every vote

Contents (86)
