Proceeding contribution from Chris Ruane (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 13 June 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill on Electoral Administration Bill.

Electoral Administration Bill

On targeting people who are the most difficult to get to register, will my hon. Friend reflect on a suggestion from Wales? Public or voluntary bodies that target socially excluded people on council estates, such as black and ethnic minorities or people on low pay, could ask, ““And how about registration?””, while carrying out their other work. Different bodies that are already active and have gained the trust of people in the community could also help with registration.
