	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 14/01/2019 answer text <p>EU exit affects a number of work areas across the Department and will therefore encompass a proportion of workload for many staff, the amount of which will vary over time. The Department has restructured its approach to the way it handles EU exit work, moving from an initial central EU exit co-ordinating team of 7 to the current position where EU exit work is distributed widely across the whole department. Many of the same staff spend a proportion of their time preparing for leaving the EU (a) with and (b) without a deal. Those proportions vary continuously over time. As such it is difficult to quantify the number of staff working on preparing for the UK to leave the EU under any one possible scenario.</p> answering member constituency Weston-super-Mare answering member printed John Penrose question first answered 14/01/2019 10:28:05 answering member 1584 label Biography information for John Penrose

	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 21/10/2015 answer text <p>Since June 2014, over 11 million people have applied to register to vote, three quarters using the new, ultra-convenient online system which takes less time than boiling an egg. At the General Election there were 400,000 more entries on the register than before, and thanks to Individual Electoral Registration (IER), 96 out of every 100 entries have been confirmed as genuine.</p><p>We’re now focusing on the remaining 4 out of 100. By December, Electoral Registration Officers will have attempted to contact each of them nine times over 18 months. Any genuine voters will be confirmed on the register, and the remaining inaccurate entries, of people who have moved away, dies or were registered fraudulently, will be removed.</p> answering member constituency Weston-super-Mare answering member printed John Penrose question first answered 21/10/2015 15:29:03 answering member 1584 label Biography information for John Penrose
