Speaking in the House of Lords on 20 January 2025

Debate

Representation of the People (Northern Ireland) (Amendment) Regulations 2025

Contribution

On the question asked by the noble Lord, Lord Elliott, my noble friends Lord Murphy and Lady Ritchie, and the noble Baroness, Lady Suttie, online registration was introduced in Northern Ireland in 2018. More than 80% of all electoral registrations in Northern Ireland now come in via the online system that serves the whole UK. Northern Ireland also now has an online register checker, as I previously stated.
