	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 10/09/2015 answer text <p>Online registration has made registering to vote quicker and more convenient for the majority of electors, including young people. Ahead of the elections on 7 May, £530,000 was allocated to organisations that work to encourage student electoral registration, including £380,000 to the National Union of Students. Universities and local authorities continue to work closely together through the Student Forum, established by the Cabinet Office. A number of learning resources promoting electoral registration in schools have also been developed in partnership with youth organisations. In addition, there are interesting pilots of the new system to improve student voter registration at Sheffield University and elsewhere, which we are studying carefully.</p><p><br></p> answering member constituency Weston-super-Mare answering member printed John Penrose question first answered 10/09/2015 15:12:25 answering member 1584 label Biography information for John Penrose
