question text	To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, what consideration the Government has given to continuing to use the matching system between the electoral register and Government databases that was used in the transition towards Individual Electoral Registration.
tabling member constituency	Wolverhampton North East
tabling member printed	Emma Reynolds
uin	2641
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 22/06/2015 answer text <p>The matching of electoral registers against Government and local authority data, referred to as ‘confirmation,’ was a one off exercise to help simplify the change to Individual Electoral Registration (IER). It resulted in 87% of existing electors being automatically transferred to the new registers under IER without needing to take any action. Data matching continues to form an important part of the system for voter registration, in verifying new applications, but also locally in identifying and verifying applications from eligible electors. We will keep under review the scope for data to further improve voter registration.</p> answering member constituency Weston-super-Mare answering member printed John Penrose question first answered 22/06/2015 16:18:37 answering member 1584 label Biography information for John Penrose
