Welcome increase in voter registration...

I attended the quarterly meeting of the Renfrewshire Valuation Joint Board in Paisley today and was pleased to hear that following the annual canvass of electors the number of registered electors in Inverclyde has increased from 59,284 in December 2009 to 61,363 in December 2010. This increase of over 2,000 in the electoral roll is most welcome and a good return for the additional resources that the Board allocated to the annual canvass.

The electoral register is of course updated on a rolling basis, so anyone still to register can do so at anytime. Those looking to vote in May's Scottish Parliament Election however must ensure that they are registered before 15 April.
