HC Deb 08 November 1991 vol 198 c266W
Mr. John D. Taylor

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department how many persons living abroad were registered as electors on the most recent electoral register; how many of them lived in Belgium, Cyprus, France, Spain and South Africa; and if he will make a statement.

Mrs. Rumbold

A total of 34,454 overseas electors are included on the electoral register for 1991–92. A breakdown of the total by parliamentary constituency is included in "Electoral Statistics 1991", published by the Office of Population Censuses and Surveys, a copy of which is in the Library. Information on the number of overseas electors living in particular countries abroad is not held centrally.
