Government officials worked closely with Returning Officers and the Electoral Commission and other agencies such as the Society of Local Authority Chief Executives (SOLACE) and the Association of Electoral Administrators (AEA) to support the smooth running of the polls on 23 May.<\/p>
<\/p>
Electoral Registration Officers (EROs) are under a statutory duty to ensure people who are eligible to vote in elections have the opportunity to do so. For the recent European Parliamentary elections that included making sure relevant citizens of the EU who are resident in the UK and registered to vote in local elections were made aware they needed to complete a voter registration and declaration form (commonly referred to as a UC1 or EC6 form) in order to enable them to vote.<\/p>
<\/p>
On 5 April, the Electoral Commission published guidance for local returning officers and EROs on the upcoming European parliamentary elections. This guidance reminded EROs to prepare and issue UC1 forms to EU citizens on the electoral register. It also encouraged EROs to agree plans and timings for postal vote despatch, including plans on how to prioritise the despatch of overseas votes. Overseas voters include UK eligible citizens living in the EU.<\/p>

Registration for elections is a matter for Electoral Registration Officers (EROs). The
Electoral Commission provides guidance and advice to EROs and is responsible for
monitoring their performance.<\/p>
The Electoral Commission supported EROs in the discharge of this function. It issued guidance on
the 4th April which recommended that EROs should identify EU citizens who are on the local
government register and send them a declaration form and supporting information explaining how
they can declare their intent to vote in these elections in the UK should they wish to.<\/p>
The Government worked with local authority elections staff
including EROs and Returning Officers and with the Electoral Commission and other
agencies such as the Society of Local Authority Chief Executives (SOLACE) and the
Association of Electoral Administrators (AEA) to support the smooth running of the polls.<\/p>"}
