Prevention of Terrorism Bill

It was moved by the Lord Kingsland, as an amendment to Motion C moved by the Baroness Scotland of Asthal, to leave out from “House” to end and insert “do insist on its Amendments 27, 31 and 32”; 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 Goodhart (Content), Lord Davies of Oldham (Not Content), Lord Grocott (Not Content).
