Constituencies: British Nationals Abroad
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, if she will make an assessment of the potential merits of introducing overseas constituencies for elections to the House of Commons.
Answered by Rushanara Ali
The Government has no plans at this time to introduce overseas constituencies for elections to the House of Commons. We are focused on delivering on our manifesto commitments to strengthen our democracy and encourage participation – including by giving 16- and 17- year olds the right to vote in all elections
