Lords division · 22 Nov 2005 · No. 3

Road Safety Bill [HL]

It was moved by the Lord Hanningfield, after Clause 14, to insert the new Clause (Retro-reflective markings); which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the House divided:

The Contents have it

Majority 17

Contents: 163 Not Contents: 146

At a glance The Contents won by a margin of 17 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: Baroness Hanham (Content), Baroness Scott of Needham Market (Content), Lord Bassam of Brighton (Not Content), Lord Grocott (Not Content).

Every vote

Contents (161)
