Question to the Cabinet Office:

To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, what assessment he has made of the effect of the (a) geography, (b) demography, and (c) socioeconomic factors on levels of electoral registration in parliamentary constituencies.

We are committed to building on the successful introduction of online registration - now used by more than 30 million citizens - to ensure that everyone eligible to take part in our democracy can do so. Later this year we will publish a democratic engagement plan setting out evidence on levels of electoral registration across the country and our intended steps for maximising registration.
