Lords division · 20 Mar 2006 · No. 2

Natural Environment and Rural Communities Bill

It was moved by the Lord Bach, before Clause 58, to insert the new Clause (Criteria for designating National Parks); which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the House divided:

The Contents have it

Majority 91

Contents: 195 Not Contents: 104

At a glance The Contents won by a margin of 91 votes. The Government's position was 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 Davies of Oldham (Content), Lord Grocott (Content), Lord Cope of Berkeley (Not Content), Baroness Seccombe (Not Content).
