HC Deb 15 February 1983 vol 37 cc88-9W
Mr. Pawsey

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department if he has any plans to alter the eligibility for postal votes in order that those persons likely to be on holiday when an election is called will have the right to vote by post.

Mr. Mayhew

This is being examined by the Select Committee on Home Affairs as part of its current inquiry into the Representation of the People Acts.
