Market Research

Each Referendum Commission conducts market research after polling day to measure the effectiveness of the various elements of its campaign and to gain understanding of the reasons people did not vote.

The research after the Children referendum was carried out on the Commission's behalf by the independent polling company Behaviour and Attitudes. Their reports of the research are published here.
