Lords division · 12 Jul 2000 · No. 1

Government Resources and Accounts Bill

It was moved by the Lord Higgins, after Clause 7 to insert the new Clause (Non-departmental public bodies’ accounts: audit); which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the House divided:

The Not Contents have it

Majority 10

Contents: 119 Not Contents: 129

At a glance The Not Contents won by a margin of 10 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 Burnham (Content), Lord Henley (Content), Lord Bach (Not Content), Lord Carter (Not Content).
