Agenda item

Councillor Bittleston introduced a detailed report which reviewed the electoral work of the Council to-date, including the voter id pilot and both the Borough and European elections.  It was noted that the report had been reviewed by the Council’s Elections and Electoral Registration Review Panel which had met on 4 July 2019.

A number of points were made in respect of the voter id pilot, including the costs involved and the range of acceptable forms of ID under the pilot.  Councillor Bittleston addressed the points raised before referring the Council to the recommendation before it.

RESOLVED

That the outcome of the 2019 voter ID pilot be noted.
