Voter ID is an important step to ensuring the public can have greater confidence in our democratic system.

The independent Electoral Commission is undertaking a detailed statutory evaluation of the 2018 pilots. The Government will confirm the next steps for voter ID after careful consideration of the Electoral Commission’s report when it is published.
