EU Referendum: Voter Registration

Debate between Baroness Rawlings and Lord Bridges of Headley

Wednesday 8th June 2016 Lords Chamber

[Lord Bridges of Headley]

The noble Lord makes an extremely good point. I will ensure that we are thinking about that right now. I am certainly not complacent.

[Baroness Rawlings (Con)]

My Lords, I welcome Her Majesty’s Government’s decision, but are they certain that all the calls to register were genuine and were not to disrupt the system in any way?

[Lord Bridges of Headley]

My Lords, it is impossible to tell at this stage who was unable to register when the site had crashed.
