The Labour Party is engaged in

enhance its ability to campaign more effectively at the next general election -

Dromey told delegates in his report: "Despite an overall reduction in expenditure we have also been investing in the future.
"Work has begun to provide the party with a flagship voter database, which will far outstrip anything our opponents have developed.
"This will enable our campaigners at all levels to have professional tools to effectively communicate with Labour supporters."
