Who has Access to the Register of Electors?
Anyone may call into the Shirehall in Shrewsbury to view the Register under supervision. You should first telephone the Elections Team on 0345 678 9015 to make an appointment, as the Register is only available to view for 30 minute periods at time. Anyone may telephone the council to enquire about a particular entry on the Register. However, we can only confirm whether a named person does or does not live at a given address. If the caller wants to know who lives at an address but does not have a matching name, we will not give out the details of the person registered at that property.
