Lords division · 10 Mar 2005 · No. 1

Prevention of Terrorism Bill

It was moved by the Lord Thomas of Gresford, as an amendment to Motion A moved by the Lord Falconer of Thoroton, to leave out from “House” to end and insert “Do disagree with the Commons in their Amendments 1A and 1B to Lords Amendment 1, but do agree with the Commons in their Amendment 1C to Lords Amendment 1; do not insist on its Amendment 8 to which the Commons have disagreed but do propose Amendment 37P in lieu thereof; do not insist on its Amendment 9 to which the Commons have disagreed; do insist on its amendments 12, 13, 15, 17, 22, 28 and 37 and do disagree with the Commons in their Amendments 37A to 37O in lieu of those Lords amendments; do agree with the Commons in their Amendments 16A to 16G to Lords amendment 16 and their Amendment 23A to Lords Amendment 23; and do propose Amendments 37R to 37T as consequential amendments to the bill”; 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: Baroness Seccombe (Content), Lord Roper (Content), Lord Davies of Oldham (Not Content), Lord Grocott (Not Content).
