Lords division · 4 Nov 2004 · No. 1

Pensions Bill

It was moved by the Lord Oakeshott of Seagrove Bay, in Clause 114, page 82, line 12, at end to insert: “( ) The Secretary of State shall have the power to make loans to the Pension Protection Fund in prescribed circumstances.”; which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the House divided:

The Not Contents have it

Majority 49

Contents: 59 Not Contents: 108

At a glance The Not Contents won by a margin of 49 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 Addington (Content), Lord Oakeshott of Seagrove Bay (Content), Lord Davies of Oldham (Not Content), Lord Grocott (Not Content).
