Lords division · 6 Mar 2006 · No. 2

London Olympic Games and Paralympic Games Bill

It was moved by the Baroness Hamwee, after Clause 9, to insert the new Clause (London Organising Committee); which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the House divided:

The Not Contents have it

Majority 71

Contents: 45 Not Contents: 116

At a glance The Not Contents won by a margin of 71 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: Baroness Harris of Richmond (Content), Lord Shutt of Greetland (Content), Lord Evans of Temple Guiting (Not Content), Lord Grocott (Not Content).
