All British households will receive an information booklet starting next week outlining the main arguments for and against EU membership ahead of a June referendum, electoral officials said today.

The brochure is part of a voter registration drive and also contains a copy of the ballot paper with the question: "Should the United Kingdom remain a member of the European Union or leave the European Union?".

On one page the Britain Stronger In Europe campaign listed its main points, including a stronger economy, leadership on the world stage, the ability to fight cross-border crime and EU-linked jobs.
