The Contents have it

Majority 178

Contents: 234 Not Contents: 56

At a glance The Contents won by a margin of 178 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 Armstrong of Ilminster (Content), Lord Davies of Oldham (Content), Lord Addington (Not Content), Lord Shutt of Greetland (Not Content).
