Individual voter registration must be introduced - Rennard
28 April 2008


Lord Rennard

Commenting on today's report on election standards from the Joseph Rowntree Reform Trust, Liberal Democrat Chief Executive, Lord (Chris) Rennard said:

"We want tougher action to prevent abuse of the postal voting system. The Government should listen to the Electoral Commission and the Commission on Standards in Public Life and reform the voter registration system.

"Individual voter registration must be introduced. A signature should be required to get on the voting register in the first place."
