It now takes just a few minutes to apply to register and nearly 30<br>million citizens have taken the opportunity to do so in the last three years. In large part thanks to<br>online registration, the parliamentary register used for the 2017 general election was the largest<br>ever at nearly 47 million</p><p>2.9 million applications were submitted between the calling of the election and the registration<br>deadline date, with 622,000 applications coming on deadline day itself</p><p>The government has continued to modernise the registration process and to make it more<br>accessible, as underscored, for example by recent policy commitments on making it easier for<br>survivors of domestic abuse to register anonymously.</p>
