Lords division · 10 Mar 2005 · No. 4

Prevention of Terrorism Bill

It was moved by the Lord Kingsland, as an amendment to Motion E moved by the Lord Falconer of Thoroton, to leave out from “House” to end and insert “do insist on its Amendments 38, 39 and 40 to which the Commons have disagreed, do not insist on its Amendment 42 and do disagree with the Commons in their Amendments 42A to 42C in lieu thereof, but do propose Amendments 42D and 42E in lieu of Lords Amendment 42”; 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).
