Watford Borough Council

Two versions of the Register have to be published by law-

• The FULL Register includes the names and addresses of everyone who is registered to vote.  The Council holds a copy.  Anyone can look at this register, but it is a criminal offence to supply or use copies for purposes other than those set down in law.
  
• The EDITED Register includes only those electors who have given permission, i.e. not opted out, for their details to be included in the register.  The edited register is available for use for any purpose and may be sold commercially.

All residents eligible to register to vote will have been given an opportunity to have their details included in the register of electors, i.e. through the annual canvass each autumn and additionally have the oppotunity to amend their registration details throughout the life of the register.  These amendments could be a change of name, i.e. due to marriage, or change of address.

The Electoral Register is compiled in accordance with a statutory timetable.  Further information is available at www.aboutmyvote.co.uk
