Proceeding contribution from David Leslie Taylor (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 28 June 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill on Electoral Administration Bill.


Electoral Administration Bill

I am grateful to my hon. Friend for his generosity in giving way. Is he aware of any academic research that compares the names that disappeared when individual registration was introduced with the names that reappeared? If there is a considerable correlation, there is substance to the theory that individual registration deters some people from submitting their names. Has any such research been done? It would be fairly easy to conduct, as the register is computerised.
