As far as I was aware & please correct me if I'm wrong, you can gain access
to the electoral register at most central libraries as it is a public
document...
There are such site's as www.192.com that even allows you to search (under
certain restraints) on the internet. I would presume that as long as you
made it very clear that the information you are publishing is taken from a
public document there should be no problems.
