Sadiq Khan – 2015 Parliamentary Question to the Speaker’s Committee on the Electoral Commission
The below Parliamentary question was asked by Sadiq Khan on 2015-11-02.
To ask the hon. Member for South West Devon, representing the Speaker’s Committee on the Electoral Commission, how many (a) EU and (b) Commonwealth citizens from which countries were registered in each London borough to vote by October 2015.
Mr Gary Streeter
The Electoral Commission holds data on the the number of European Union (EU) citizens (including attainers) on the electoral registers in December 2014. These figures are collected annually by the Office of National Statistics for England and Wales. Data is not available on the number of registered Commonwealth citizens as the registers do not distinguish Commonwealth citizens as they are entitled to vote in all elections.
