This is a complex question, and I know it applies to councillors once elected, but during the elections of 2019, were candidates asked to register any interests in lobby groups?

If they were a councillor and a candidate (re-election), then yes, otherwise no.

It depends what you mean by lobby groups. Three dog owners wanting an extra poo bin are a lobby group.
