Lords division · 13 Jul 2000 · No. 1

Regulation of Investigatory Powers Bill

It was moved by the Lord Cope of Berkeley, in Clause 49, page 55, line 43, to leave out from beginning to (“that”) in line 49 and insert (“the Secretary of State has issued a warrant directing”); which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the House divided:

The Not Contents have it

Majority 1

Contents: 119 Not Contents: 120

At a glance The Not Contents won by a margin of 1 vote. 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 Carter (Not Content), The Lord McIntosh of Haringey (Not Content).
