Question to the Home Office:
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what assessment she has made of the potential merits of making HM Passport Office data available to Electoral Registration Officers for the purposes of Automatic Voter Registration.
This question was answered on 6th February 2026
His Majesty’s Passport Office shares data with other government departments, law enforcement agencies and local authorities to help fulfil their aims and objectives when it is legal to do so.
The merits of potential data sources to support voter registration is a matter for the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government.
