Labour is concerned that the Electoral Commission is not doing enough to enrol voters ahead of this year's election following changes to the law made by the current Government, which mean that voters cannot enrol or update their enrolment on election day or during the advanced voting period.

This means that if the contact details associated with your enrolment are incorrect, your vote could be discounted. 

Labour justice spokesperson Camilla Belich told Andrew Dickens their concerns are that the changes will limit people's ability to participate in democracy. 

"We think that politicians should be making it easier for people to vote, not harder, and unfortunately the Government is doing the opposite," Belich said.
