answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 29/04/2019 answer text <p>It remains the Government’s intention to leave the EU with a deal before the 23 May, so we do not need to participate in European Parliamentary elections.</p><p>Electoral Registration Officers (EROs) maintain their own register for the area for which they are responsible. EROs should write to EU citizens informing them of their right to vote and request they confirm whether or not they wish to vote at a European parliamentary election in the UK or in their home country.</p><p>Moreover, the Government has made registering to vote easier for all citizens, including those from the EU, with an online application taking as little as 5 minutes. The Individual Electoral Registration digital service has been a huge success, facilitating over 38 million applications; with over 75% of these being made online since its introduction in 2014.</p> answering member constituency Torbay answering member printed Kevin Foster question first answered 29/04/2019 16:13:22 answering member 4451 label Biography information for Kevin Foster
