Elections: Proof of Identity

Question

To ask the Secretary of State for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities, whether he has appointed a reviewer to conduct a review of voter ID changes at the May 2023 local elections.

Answer

As the Government set out in the House of Lords debate titled Voter Identification Regulations 2022 on 13 December 2022 (Official Report HL, Volume 826, Column 566), the report on voter identification and the polls held in May 2023 will be compiled by an independent research agency. Further details will be set out in due course. We will publish the evaluation report on the policy in November 2023.
