Electoral Administration Bill

I happily support Amendment No. 61. It is an extremely sensible amendment, especially if we are to continue with household registration. We have already discussed the difficulty of household registration for houses in multiple occupation. I hope that, by the end of our discussion on the Bill, we will have identified a way to deal with individual registration. The amendment would fit usefully with that. I also support Amendment No. 69, because that probably makes sense in terms of how many people now see themselves or hold their information. Within the constraints of preventing fraud, we must make it easy for people to produce their date of birth. I am relatively unconcerned about Amendment No. 72; I am more concerned with Amendments Nos. 71 and 73, which I support. The noble Lord, Lord Greaves, will forgive me if I misheard him, but I thought that, in speaking to Amendment No. 84, he was addressing parts and parcels of areas voting. I listened to him carefully, but Amendment No. 84 is about an electoral registration authority. I am not sure that he addressed that. If I was asleep momentarily, I apologise, but I think that he was speaking to a different amendment.
