Lords division · 26 Oct 2004 · No. 2

Hunting Bill

It was moved by the Baroness Golding, in Clause 5, page 2, line 3, to leave out “a” and insert “an unregistered”; which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the Committee divided:

The Contents have it

Majority 13

Contents: 67 Not Contents: 54

At a glance The Contents won by a margin of 13 votes. The Government's position was Not Content, and it lost. This was not a whipped vote, so no party line applied.

How the parties voted

Conservative 47

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 Donoughue (Content), Baroness Golding (Content), Lord Faulkner of Worcester (Not Content), Baroness Gould of Potternewton (Not Content).
