Lords division · 2 Nov 2004 · No. 1

Armed Forces (Pensions and Compensation) Bill

It was moved by the Lord Morris of Manchester, as an amendment to the motion that this House do not insist on its Amendment 1, to which the Commons have disagreed for their Reason 1A, at end to insert “but do propose amendment 1C in lieu thereof”; 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 Craig of Radley (Content), Lord Morris of Manchester (Content), Lord Davies of Oldham (Not Content), Lord Grocott (Not Content).
