Proceeding contribution from Andrew Gwynne (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 8 November 2005. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee of the Whole House (HC) on Electoral Administration Bill 2005-06.


Electoral Administration Bill

The Minister is right to mention resources. During the recent general election, several people came to me having realised that they were not registered to vote and said that they had not registered because they were expecting a knock on the door from the local authority. That knock never came, because for several years the local authority has not been conducting annual censuses on a door-to-door basis. Does the Minister think that that should be addressed?
