Question

To ask the Deputy Prime Minister, what assessment his Department has made of the accuracy of the data provided by the Electoral Commission on the 2014 Electoral Registers used for the implementation of Individual Electoral Registration.

The Government has not produced its own analysis.

The registers used for the implementation of Individual Electoral Registration in 2014 were those published before the transition.

The Electoral Commission has published its own analysis of the completeness and accuracy of the electoral registers published in February in England, and March 2014 in Scotland.
