Burton on Trent Town Hall

Voters across Burton on Trent and East Staffordshire are being encouraged to check their name is included in the newly published Register of Electors this year, particularly as a General Parliamentary Election is due to be held no later than June 2010.

The Electoral Registration Officer has published a revised version of the full Register of Electors for the Borough of East Staffordshire.

People are registered at the address where they were living on October 15th, 2009 – and these include:
·    British Citizens
·    Citizens of European Union Countries
·    Qualifying Commonwealth Citizens

The new Register is available for inspection, under supervision, during normal office hours, at the Town Hall, Burton upon Trent; the Customer Service Centre in the Market Place, High Street, Burton upon Trent and the Customer Service Centre, Uttoxeter Library.

If your name is missed off the register, or your details have changed since October 15th, 2009 (for example, because you have moved), you should contact Electoral Services immediately, by phoning the helpline 01283 508376 or by e mailing elections@eaststaffsbc.gov.uk

It’s not just important to register to vote, credit grantors use the register to verify residency – if you are not on the register this could affect any credit applications which you may make.
