Lords division · 6 Apr 2005 · No. 4

Serious Organised Crime and Police Bill

It was moved by the Lord Dholakia to leave out Clause 141; which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the House divided:

The Not Contents have it

Majority 62

Contents: 63 Not Contents: 125

At a glance The Not Contents won by a margin of 62 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 Addington (Content), Lord Shutt of Greetland (Content), Lord Davies of Oldham (Not Content), Lord Grocott (Not Content).
