The Electoral Office has provided me with the attached table listing the estimated registration rates for the 100 wards in Northern Ireland with the highest electoral registration rates. These are based on population estimates based on the 2011 census and may under or overstate the true population from area to area. Because of these inaccuracies, some percentages exceed 100% and actual registration figures* are therefore included alongside estimated population totals** for these wards.<\/p>

<\/p>
The Electoral Commission informs me that the numbers of people who have registered online falls within the remit of the Cabinet Office, which is leading on online registration.<\/p>
<\/p>
<\/p>
<\/p>
The Electoral Commission is taking a range of steps to encourage online registration, including providing template letters for Electoral Registration Officers (EROs) to send to residents highlighting the fact that people can register online and directing them to the registration site (gov.uk/register-to-vote). The Commission has also made a range of publicity resources available for EROs to use in their local public engagement activity which direct people to the gov.uk site. These will work in conjunction with the Commission's mass media public awareness campaign to coincide with the \u2018write out' EROs are doing in their areas and which takes place in England and Wales in July / August and in October in Scotland. The Commission is also working with partners and stakeholders, including political parties, businesses, voluntary organisations and the media, to ensure the message about online registration and the gov.uk/register-to-vote address is spread as widely as possible.<\/p>

The Electoral Commission informs me that the budget for the first phase of its individual electoral registration (IER) public awareness campaign \u2013 which is timed to coincide with the \u2018write out' from Electoral Registration Officers to everyone in their area - is approximately £3million.<\/p>

<\/p>
The Commission's first research on the completeness and accuracy of the registers was published in 2005, using 2001 census data. The research was undertaken to gain estimates of the quality of the electoral registers and to continue a series of published reports following each census, which had previously been funded/overseen by the Office for Public Censuses and Surveys and the Home Office.<\/p>
<\/p>
The 2005 report, and subsequent research, have informed the advice, guidance and resources the Commission produces to help get people registered, as well as the public awareness campaigns the Commission runs itself.<\/p>
<\/p>
All of its current planned research is focused on monitoring the transition to Individual Electoral Registration.<\/p>
