Lords division · 10 Jul 2000 · No. 1

Transport Bill

It was moved by the Lord Dixon-Smith in page 67, line 38, at end to insert: (“( ) Guidance issued under this section shall be confined to that necessary to ensure consistency of information and presentation within plans, and consistency between plans and with national policy.”); which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the Committee divided:

The Not Contents have it

Majority 59

Contents: 71 Not Contents: 130

At a glance The Not Contents won by a margin of 59 votes. The Government's position was Not Content, and it won.

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 Burnham (Content), Lord Henley (Content), Lord Carter (Not Content), The Lord McIntosh of Haringey (Not Content).

Every vote

Contents (69)

Not Contents (128)

Tellers (4)
