Veterans: Identity Cards
- Question
-
Whether he has had discussions with the Secretary of State for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities on the potential merits of designating veterans ID cards as an accepted form of voter identification at polling stations.
- Answer
-
The Government reviewed the list of accepted identification as part of the wider evaluation of the impact and implementation of voter identification at the May 2023 local elections in England. We concluded that, at this time, there are no suitable additions to be made to this list. This review included consideration of the Veteran Card.
