Lords division · 10 Mar 2005 · No. 5

Gambling Bill

It was moved by the Baroness Buscombe, in Clause 7, page 3, line 42, at end to insert: “( ) In this Act “casino premises” means premises in respect of which a casino premises licence has been granted under section 148(1)(a).”; which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the Committee divided:

The Contents have it

Majority 18

Contents: 123 Not Contents: 105

At a glance The Contents won by a margin of 18 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), Baroness Seccombe (Content), Lord Davies of Oldham (Not Content), Lord Grocott (Not Content).

Every vote

Contents (121)

Not Contents (103)
