Lord Kennedy of Southwark Excerpts
Lord Kennedy of Southwark (Lab)
My Lords, does the noble Baroness agree that we have a serious problem of under-registration in the UK?
Baroness Chisholm of Owlpen
I do not disagree with the noble Lord. That is why we are working so hard and why we have provided £7.5 million to local authorities to make sure that we encourage people to get on to the register. As I said earlier, we have made it much easier to do that, and all we can do is to keep plugging and make sure that we succeed.
