Asked by:

Pursuant to the answer to Question UIN 5416 on 11 October 2024, the Government is committed to working with stakeholders in the electoral sector and civil society organisations as it seeks to make improvements to our electoral system. Ministers and officials meet regularly with the electoral sector and the devolved administrations in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.

We are clear that electoral reform will require careful consideration and widespread engagement with civil society and, of course, young people themselves as work progresses. Details of ministerial meeting with external organisations are published on gov.uk.
