HC Deb 01 December 1949 vol 470 c111W
84. Mr. Janner

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department what percentage of the population entitled to vote have sent in their names for inclusion on the most recent electoral register; and how this figure compares with the percentage on the register at the last General Election.

Mr. Ede

I regret that I am not able to give this information, because no precise estimates are available of the numbers of British subjects of full age and otherwise qualified to vote on the relevant dates.
