Lords division · 16 Nov 2004 · No. 5

Housing Bill

It was moved by the Earl of Caithness, as an amendment to motion 128B, to leave out “Amendment 128C” and insert “Amendments 128C, 128H and 128J”; 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: The Earl of Caithness (Content), Lord Cope of Berkeley (Content), Lord Davies of Oldham (Not Content), Lord Grocott (Not Content).
