Summary

Mr. Pierrick Courbon draws the attention of the Minister of the Interior to the difficulties encountered by the municipalities during the revision of the electoral lists. Due to regular moves, many town halls struggle to know precisely the residents actually residing in their territory. The information available is often incomplete or obsolete, forcing municipal services to carry out multiple checks. particularly time-consuming and expensive. While registration on the electoral lists is today based on a voluntary process, certain declaration obligations already exist for other administrative procedures, in particular with regard to the change of address for the registration document. In this context, it would be legitimate for the municipality to have up-to-date information on its citizens, in order to ensure the reliability of the electoral lists and more broadly to adapt public policies. Thus, an obligation to declare residence when moving to a new municipality could be considered. He therefore asks whether the Government is considering a change in the legal framework on this subject and more broadly what its intentions are to improve the reliability of the electoral lists.
