Lords division · 8 Mar 2006 · No. 3

Civil Aviation Bill

It was moved by the Lord Hanningfield, in Clause 2, page 2, line 42, to leave out subsection (2); which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the House divided:

The Contents have it

Majority 40

Contents: 167 Not Contents: 127

At a glance The Contents won by a margin of 40 votes. 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 Seccombe (Content), Baroness Crawley (Not Content), Lord Grocott (Not Content).

Every vote

Contents (165)

Not Contents (125)

Tellers (4)
