Lords division · 10 Jan 2006 · No. 3

Road Safety Bill [HL]

It was moved by the Baroness Gardner of Parkes, after Clause 36, to insert the new Clause (Identification of vehicles driven by new drivers: pilot scheme); which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the House divided:

The Not Contents have it

Majority 25

Contents: 118 Not Contents: 143

At a glance The Not Contents won by a margin of 25 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 Swinfen (Content), Baroness Scott of Needham Market (Content), Baroness Crawley (Not Content), Lord Grocott (Not Content).
