Lords division · 12 Oct 2005 · No. 1

Charities Bill [HL]

It was moved by the Lord Phillips of Sudbury, in Clause 4, page 3, line 40, at end to insert: “( ) In carrying out consultation under subsection (4), the Commission shall, inter alia, consider the effect on public benefit of the charging policy of any charity.”; which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the House divided:

The Not Contents have it

Majority 79

Contents: 60 Not Contents: 139

At a glance The Not Contents won by a margin of 79 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 Phillips of Sudbury (Content), Lord Shutt of Greetland (Content), Lord Davies of Oldham (Not Content), Lord Grocott (Not Content).
