Lords division · 21 Feb 2005 · No. 1

Education Bill [HL]

It was moved by the Baroness Perry of Southwark, in Schedule 1, page 67, line 14, at end to insert “and a list of such additional inspectors shall be published annually”; which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the House divided:

The Contents have it

Majority 16

Contents: 149 Not Contents: 133

At a glance The Contents won by a margin of 16 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), Baroness Harris of Richmond (Content), Lord Davies of Oldham (Not Content), Lord Grocott (Not Content).

Contents (147)
