C. CITIZENSHIP
While every resident is entitled to be registered, the registration authority
needs to know a person's citizenship to determine the elections at which they
may vote
The right to vote is as follows:
-
Irish citizens may vote at every election and referendum
-
British citizens may vote at Dail, European and local elections
-
EU citizens (other than British citizens) may vote at European and local
elections
-
Non-EU citizens may vote at local elections
D. TWO VERSIONS OF THE REGISTER
Since 2004, regisration authorities are required to publish two versions of the
register - the edited register and the full register
The full register lists everyone who is entitled to vote and can only be used
for an electoral or other statutory purpose
EDITED REGISTER
The edited register contains the names and addresses of persons whose details
can be used for a purpose other than an electoral or other statutory purpose
e.g. for direct marketing use by a commercial or other organisation
If any member(s) of the household do not want their details to be included on
the edited register, you should tick the relevant opt out box(es) in column (v)
at part 3 of the form. If any household members want their registration details
to be included (i.e. available for non-satutory uses), you should leave the
relevant opt out box(es) blank
The person completing this form should check with any other household members as
regards their intentions concerning appearing on the edited regist
