Division 1:
The Lord Bishop of Hereford took part in a vote on an amendment to the bill tabled by Lord True, which “would mean that unpaid Ministers would not be eligible for membership of the House, effectively requiring all Lords Ministers to be paid,”, with a clarification that this would apply only to future ministers and not to existing members of the House.
The amendment was agreed. Content: 284 / Not Content: 239
