<p>The Secretary of State for Northern Ireland has not made any assessment of the
performance of the Electoral Office of Northern Ireland during the 2019 General Election.
The Chief Electoral Officer is carrying out a post election review which will include
an internal investigation into the allegations made concerning inefficiency. The Secretary
of State has asked her to report the findings of that review to him as soon as possible.
The Secretary of State has the power to commission further enquiries into these matters
if he were to decide such enquiries are necessary following the Chief Electoral Officer’s
investigations.</p>
