Lords division · 18 Nov 2004 · No. 1

Civil Contingencies Bill

It was moved by the Baroness Buscombe, as an amendment to the motion that this House do not insist on its Amendment 49, to which the Commons have disagreed for their Reason 49A, at end to insert “but do propose amendment 49B in lieu thereof”; which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the House divided:

The Contents have it

Majority 29

Contents: 152 Not Contents: 123

At a glance The Contents won by a margin of 29 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 (150)

Not Contents (121)
