Recommendation 48

48

Create an overseas electoral register to record voter country, successful voting, and postal vote data.

Conclusion
As part of the reform to the electoral register, an overseas electoral register should be created and information about what country people are living in and data on whether they were successfully able to vote should be generated. In particular, the number of postal votes sent out and returned, including the number that arrived in the two weeks following the election, should in future be recorded. (Recommendation, Paragraph 122) Accessible voting
