Northern Ireland (Miscellaneous Provisions) Bill

We welcome the extension of the period for late registration. Many people realise that they need to be on the register only when an election is called and canvassing begins. In addition to the existing identifiers and the fact that they will not be allowed an absent vote, what further safeguards will be required of people who seek late registration?
