HC Deb 20 March 1973 vol 853 c60W
Mr. Kilfedder

asked the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland how many complaints have been received either by letter or telephone either at Stormont Castle or by the returning officers in Northern Ireland about omission of names from the electoral register, or failure to receive postal votes or to receive them in adequate time for their return.

Mr. Peter Mills

Precise information is not available, but it is estimated that about 550 complaints or queries were received about the omission of names from the electoral register and about 230 about failure to receive postal votes. There were no complaints about failure to receive postal ballot papers in good time for their return.
