Photo ID will soon be required for elections in England
From late January anyone who does not have one of the accepted forms of ID will be able to apply for free ID – known as a Voter Authority Certificate atAccepted forms of ID include a UK, European Economic Area or Commonwealth passport, a UK, EEA or Commonwealth driving licence, and some concessionary travel passes, such as an older person’s bus pass or an Oyster 60+ card.
Andy Begley, Shropshire Council’s chief executive, and returning officer, said: “Though no elections are planned in the Shropshire Council area this year we wanted to let people in our area know about this change so that they can check if they do have an accepted form of ID, or whether they may need to apply for a free voter authority certificate.
