Lords division · 28 Feb 2005 · No. 3

Disability Discrimination Bill [HL]

It was moved by the Lord Higgins, as an amendment to amendment 6, in line 4, to leave out from “vehicle” to end of line 6; which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the House divided:

The Not Contents have it

Majority 4

Contents: 118 Not Contents: 122

At a glance The Not Contents won by a margin of 4 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: Baroness Seccombe (Content), Lord Addington (Content), Lord Evans of Temple Guiting (Not Content), Lord Grocott (Not Content).
