Postal Voting
- Question
- To ask the Minister of State, Department for Constitutional Affairs if she will make it a requirement for the returning officer to make available a marked register indicating postal voters in West Lancashire.
- Answer
-
There is currently no provision in electoral law for a Returning Officer to prepare a register of postal voters marked to show which of them returned their postal votes. However, the Electoral Administration Bill currently before Parliament does make such provision, and our intention is that marked registers of returned postal votes will therefore be available after future elections.
