Lords division · 15 Feb 2006 · No. 1

NHS Redress Bill [HL]

It was moved by the Earl Howe, in Clause 6, page 3, line 33, at end to insert (such investigation to be confined to investigation of the facts of cases and not to consider issues of liability in tort)”; which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the House divided:

The Contents have it

Majority 1

Contents: 126 Not Contents: 125

At a glance The Contents won by a margin of 1 vote. 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), Baroness Harris of Richmond (Content), Lord Davies of Oldham (Not Content), Lord Grocott (Not Content).

Every vote

Contents (124)

Not Contents (123)

Tellers (4)
