The current system of individual electoral registration is failing, particularly marginalising those from poorer backgrounds, disabled individuals, and ethnic minorities. Since its introduction, a staggering 800,000 people have dropped off the register nationwide, representing an increase in exclusion for vulnerable populations. The Bill aims to impose duties on the Government to ensure accurate and complete electoral registers by integrating national datasets, enabling automatic updates of addresses, and promoting data sharing between public bodies. It also proposes a cheaper, simpler model with proven success in Australia.
