Paragraph 12
 
12.  In Great Britain, the registration follows a household model: the main way of registering continues to be through the annual canvass forms that the registration officer sends to each address, and in which the householder provides the information about the persons that live at that address and who are entitled to vote.[1] One person signs each canvass form.  This means that only one person is responsible for the accuracy of the information of all the voters in a household.[2]
