Households in Pembrokeshire will this week be receiving a form asking residents to check whether the information that appears on the electoral register for that address is correct.
The enquiry is part of Pembrokeshire County Council’s annual canvass of households.
The aim is to ensure that the electoral register is up to date, and to identify any residents who are not registered so that they can be encouraged to do so.
Local Council elections will take place in May, 2017, this is an opportunity for resident to make sure that they will be able to take part.
Ian Westley, Electoral Registration Officer at Pembrokeshire County Council said: “Anyone that wants to vote must be registered. To make sure you are able to have your say at the elections next year, simply check the form when it arrives and respond as promptly as possible.
“It’s particularly important that anyone who has moved address recently looks out for this information to ensure that they are registered.”
Anyone who has any questions should call the helpline on 01437 775844 or email electoralservices@pembrokeshire.gov.uk
