Parliamentary Voting System and Constituencies Bill

May I clarify a point? As the Minister said, we have debated the issue before. Does he mean ““reside””—in which case people with three or four homes could presumably register in each of the places where they occasionally reside—or does he mean ““primarily reside””? Surely it must be decided where people's primary residence is, rather than where they occasionally reside. People with second homes—and third homes, and fourth homes—have a significant advantage over all other voters, in that they can choose where to deploy their vote most effectively.
