Lords division · 29 Nov 2005 · No. 1

Road Safety Bill [HL]

It was moved by the Lord Hanningfield to leave out Clause 29; which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the House divided:

The Contents have it

Majority 8

Contents: 166 Not Contents: 158

At a glance The Contents won by a margin of 8 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), The Earl of Mar and Kellie (Content), Baroness Crawley (Not Content), Lord Grocott (Not Content).

Every vote

Contents (164)
