Lords division · 8 Mar 2005 · No. 1

Prevention of Terrorism Bill

It was moved by the Lord Kingsland, in Clause 1, page 1, line 17, to leave out “may include, in particular” and insert “are”; which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the House divided:

The Contents have it

Majority 127

Contents: 256 Not Contents: 129

At a glance The Contents won by a margin of 127 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 Goodhart (Content), Lord Davies of Oldham (Not Content), Lord Grocott (Not Content).
