answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 03/09/2019 answer text <p>The Government has no plans to introduce election day registration. To work effectively and securely, it would require all polling stations in a constituency to be electronically linked and the register updated in real time to prevent anyone registering and voting in one<br />polling station and moving quickly to another to do the same. This would present considerable technical challenges and carry significant cost.</p><p><ins class="ministerial">Such a change would introduce uncertainties as to the register to be used for the election and undermine confidence in the process if candidates were unable to challenge any unusual trends in registration prior to Polling Day.</ins></p><p>Electoral Registration Officers (EROs) are legally responsible for determining who is eligible to vote in polls in their local areas. Coming to a determination can take time and cannot be done instantaneously.</p> answering member constituency Torbay answering member printed Kevin Foster question first answered 03/09/2019 09:22:51 question first ministerially corrected 05/09/2019 14:18:34 answering member 4451 label Biography information for Kevin Foster previous answer version 132660 answering member constituency Torbay answering member printed Kevin Foster answering member 4451 label Biography information for Kevin Foster
