The data you send for the national data match step in relation to all persons aged 16 or over who appear on the parliamentary and local government registers must include:1
the full name, including any middle name(s) or initials you may hold
the date of birth (where held)
the full address, including postcode
Unique Property Reference Number (UPRN) (where held)
any other information that you hold relating to a person’s entry on the register, if the Cabinet Office specifies such information in writing (for example, a previous surname). This additional information may improve the likelihood of a data match as the information you hold may show a link exists between the data held nationally and your data.
