Shortfall In Electoral Registration

EDM number 19 in 1992-93, proposed by Harry Barnes on 06/05/1992.

That this House is deeply concerned about the shortfall of some 1.5 million people on the electoral register at the General Election compared to official estimates of the relevant population; believes that this shortfall is unique and is likely to have distorted both the result of the General Election and opinion poll estimates of that result; and calls upon the Home Affairs Select Committee to conduct an urgent and full investigation into this matter.

This motion has been signed by a total of 88 MPs.
