The Cabinet Office does not hold data on the number of citizens on the register, as local authorities manage their registers.<\/p>
Whilst we cannot provide data for individual constituencies, we are able to provide the number of applications that were submitted through the Individual Electoral Registration Digital Service (IER DS) for North Lanarkshire and Scotland, each day between 27 August
2019 to 4 September 2019, as shown below.<\/p>
These figures are for the total number of applications that have been made to the IER DS. Not all individuals who submit an application to register to vote are necessarily added to the electoral register. Eligibility to be added to a register is determined by Electoral Registration Officers for their local areas.<\/p>
