**Overview of the non-voter process
If our records indicate you may not have voted, the Electoral Commission may contact you with up to three notices under section 85 of the Electoral Act 1985 and the Expiation of Offences Act 1996 to help clarify your voting status. If you do not respond or resolve the matter, your case is referred to the Fines Enforcement and Recovery Unit (FERU).
