Abstract
Description
The public consultation on a series of proposals to modernise the electoral registration process ran
from 17 December 2018 to 15 March 2019. Views were sought on a series of proposals:
1. Simplification of forms and the process;
2. A rolling electoral register (a continuous ‘live’ electoral register);
3. Optional online registration (with the option of registering with paper forms continuing) and
secure self-service;
4. A move to individual registration only;
5. Enabling a single national electoral register database with unique identifiers;
6. A move to verified identity using one’s Personal Public Service Number (PPSN);
7. Data sharing between public bodies and electoral registration authorities (local authorities) to
maintain accuracy and comprehensiveness.
