Lords division · 8 Mar 2005 · No. 4

Prevention of Terrorism Bill

It was moved by the Lord Kingsland, in the Schedule, page 19, line 30, to leave out sub-paragraphs (2) to (4) and insert: “( ) The relevant rules of court shall be made by the Lord Chief Justice after consulting the Lord Chancellor.”; which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the House divided:

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 Thomas of Gresford (Content), Lord Davies of Oldham (Not Content), Lord Grocott (Not Content).
