The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, what proportion of voters are registered to vote by post in each parliamentary constituency.

Answered by Rushanara Ali

The data is not held centrally. Electoral registers are maintained by local Electoral Registration Officers (EROs). EROs are the custodians of electoral registers, and this data is not held by central government.
