Lords division · 7 Mar 2005 · No. 1

Prevention of Terrorism Bill

It was moved by the Lord Goodhart, in Clause 3, line 2, as an amendment to amendment 55 moved by the Baroness Scotland of Asthal, to leave out “Secretary of State” and insert “court”; which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the Committee divided:

The Contents have it

Majority 130

Contents: 249 Not Contents: 119

At a glance The Contents won by a margin of 130 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: Baroness Seccombe (Content), Lord Roper (Content), Lord Davies of Oldham (Not Content), Lord Grocott (Not Content).
