By law, we have to carry out an annual ‘canvass’ of electors every year, to ensure the electoral register is as complete and accurate as possible. The canvass runs from July to November and the revised electoral register, incorporating the changes made during the canvass, will be published on December 1, 2022. You need to be on the electoral register to vote in elections. Being registered can also improve your credit rating.
