Lords division · 14 Sep 2004 · No. 1

Horserace Betting and Olympic Lottery Bill

It was moved by the Lord Moynihan, after Clause 5, to insert the new Clause (Sale of the successor company to the Racing Trust); which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the House divided:

The Not Contents have it

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 Luke (Content), Baroness Wilcox (Content), Lord Davies of Oldham (Not Content), Lord Grocott (Not Content).

Every vote

Contents (104)

Not Contents (179)

Tellers (4)
