REPRESENTATION OF THE PEOPLE, NORTHERN IRELAND

These Regulations make amendments to the European Parliamentary Elections (Franchise of Relevant Citizens of the Union) Regulations 2001 (the “2001 Franchise Regulations”), the European Parliamentary Elections (Northern Ireland) Regulations 2004 (the “2004 Regulations”) and the European Parliamentary Elections Regulations 2004 to implement a scheme of anonymous registration for European Parliamentary elections in Northern Ireland. The 2001 Franchise Regulations give effect to Article 22.2 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union and the requirements of Council Directive 93/109/EC of 6 December 1993 laying down detailed arrangements for the exercise of the right to vote and stand as a candidate in elections to the European Parliament for citizens of the Union residing in a Member State of which they are not nationals.
