The Electoral Commission will report on the number of individuals on the registers before the next UK Parliamentary general election that will be removed if the transition to Individual Electoral Registration will end in December 2015.

As usual, the Commission will ensure the information is publicly available and it will be for the Boundary Commissions and those responsible for boundaries to assess their impact.
