<p>Cabinet Office does not hold information on the number of non-UK EU citizens, resident
in<br>the UK, who do or do not register to vote in European Parliamentary elections</p><p>Estimates
of the number of eligible people on the registers for electoral events are<br>published
by the Electoral Commission following each poll, but have not previously<br>included
a breakdown of the numbers of EU citizens eligible to vote. These reports are<br>available
online at: www.electoralcommission.org.uk.</p><p>Each Electoral Registration Officer
maintains a register for their own local area. Some<br>headline registration statistics
by area are collated and published annually by the Office for<br>National Statistics,
however, this does not include a breakdown of the numbers of EU<br>citizens registered
to vote. The total number of UK local government electors – which<br>includes EU citizens
– in the year to December 2018 was 47.8 million</p><p>The latest bulletin is available
