EU Referendum: Voter Registration

David Nuttall Excerpts

Thursday 9th June 2016 Commons Chamber

[Mr Letwin]

Nationally.

[Mr David Nuttall (Bury North) (Con)]

Can my right hon. Friend confirm that paper applications will also be considered even though they may have arrived in the post yesterday morning or this morning, in the same way as late applications made online will be considered?

[Mr Letwin]

The answer to that is yes. The way in which the system in Great Britain operates, unlike that in Northern Ireland, is that all the paper goes into the online system at a later stage. The whole thing here has been delayed by two days.
