Question to the Cabinet Office:

To ask Her Majesty’s Government whether they have any plans to respond to the Electoral Commission’s "Assessment of progress with the transition to Electoral Individual Registration" published on 18 June.

The Government is considering the findings and recommendation set out in the Electoral Commission’s report in order to inform our decision over whether to seek to end the transition to Individual Electoral Registration (IER) in December 2015 or December 2016. We will respond in due course with our approach for ending the transition to IER.
