Lords division · 14 Nov 2005 · No. 3

Licensing Act 2003 (Second Appointed Day) Order 2005

It was moved by the Viscount Astor that this House calls upon Her Majesty’s Government to withdraw the Licensing Act 2003 (Second Appointed Day) Order 2005 (S.I. 2005/2091) and to replace it with an order specifying the second appointed day as 30th June 2006 in order to allow more time to address public concerns about the effects of the proposed changes and for arrangements for any required changes to be completed in an orderly manner; which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the House divided:

The Contents have it

Majority 33

Contents: 130 Not Contents: 97

At a glance The Contents won by a margin of 33 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), Lord Avebury (Content), Lord Davies of Oldham (Not Content), Lord Grocott (Not Content).

Every vote

Contents (128)
