Notes:     1.  Electoral Rolls are revised annually and new rolls are compiled every six years. Thus in 1990, 1996 and 2002 new electoral rolls were compiled.
                2.  Figures for cathedrals are included from 2002 onwards.
                3.  N/A These figures are not available so national electoral roll totals for 1990 and 1996 do not include the Diocese of Europe.
