Individual Electoral Registration (IER)
From 10 June 2014, the way you register to vote has changed. The new registration system is called Individual Electoral Registration (IER). IER has been introduced nationally to help tackle electoral fraud and enable online registration, which will make it easier and more convenient for you to register to vote.
