Electoral Register: Wales
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, what discussions has she had with representatives from Welsh Government on the results of its automatic voter registration pilots.
Answered by Samantha Dixon
The Welsh Government’s automatic voter registration pilots are discussed when Ministers from across the UK attend the regular meetings of the Interministerial Group (IMG) for Elections and Registration. The meetings are led by the ministers with election policy in their portfolios and meeting reports are then published by the government. Updates on the work relating to the Welsh pilots are a regular agenda item, with the most recent discussion taking place in February.
UK Government and Welsh Government officials are also in regular contact on a range of electoral conduct and registration topics, including the Welsh Government’s pilots on automatic electoral registration.
