§ Mr. RedmondTo ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department on what date he hopes to publish, by parliamentary constituency, the number of overseas electors included in the 1991–92 electoral registers; and if he will make it his policy to publish this figure also as a percentage of the electorate.
§ Mrs. RumboldThe numbers of overseas electors included in the electoral register for 1991–92, by parliamentary constituency, will be published in the summer. We have no plans to publish these figures as a percentage of the registered electorate. We shall very shortly make known to the House the numbers of overseas electors included in the draft register for 1991–92, which was published on 28 November 1990.
