Lords division · 17 Jul 2000 · No. 1

Transport Bill

It was moved by the Lord Dixon-Smith, in Clause 163, page 99, line 26, at end to insert: (“(3) In a case where the charging authority is a county council, it shall not make a charge in relation to a particular town in its area without the agreement of the district council within which the town is placed.”); which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the Committee divided:

The Not Contents have it

Majority 71

Contents: 63 Not Contents: 134

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: Lord Burnham (Content), Earl of Northesk (Content), Lord Carter (Not Content), The Lord McIntosh of Haringey (Not Content).
