Lords division · 12 Jun 2006 · No. 1

Childcare Bill

It was moved by the Baroness Morris of Bolton, in Clause 6, page 4, line 8, after “sufficient” to insert “and is likely to remain sufficient”; which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the House divided:

The Not Contents have it

Majority 0

Contents: 147 Not Contents: 147

At a glance The Not Contents won by a margin of 0 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 Cope of Berkeley (Content), The Earl of Mar and Kellie (Content), Lord Davies of Oldham (Not Content), Lord Grocott (Not Content).
