Lords division · 3 Nov 2004 · No. 3

Housing Bill

It was moved by the Lord Hanningfield, after Clause 209, to insert the following new Clause (Decent homes standard for social housing); which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the House divided:

The Contents have it

Majority 50

Contents: 158 Not Contents: 108

At a glance The Contents won by a margin of 50 votes. The Government's position was Not Content, and it lost.

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), Lord Roper (Content), Lord Davies of Oldham (Not Content), Lord Grocott (Not Content).

Every vote

Contents (156)

Not Contents (106)
