Performance standards

Overview

We have developed performance standards for Electoral Registration Officers (EROs) and we are in the process of developing standards for Returning Officers (ROs) in Great Britain.

We have consulted widely and collected baseline performance information from EROs and ROs. This information has helped identify areas where performance standards may be helpful in supporting improvement. We published performance standards for EROs (PDF) in July 2008, and will be publishing the standards for ROs in early 2009.

In 2007, we also launched our financial information survey to provide, for the first time ever, the costs involved in the electoral registration and election process.
