Proceeding contribution from Lord Phillips of Sudbury (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Monday, 31 October 2005. It occurred during Debate on bill on Identity Cards Bill.

Identity Cards Bill

No, my Lords, he is not. He is suggesting that, as the expert from Microsoft said, we may be inadvertently creating what he called a ““honeypot”” that would allow, in a simpler way, those who are determined to circumvent the systems—there are many of them, and their numbers are growing—to do so. I am warning against the easy assumption that the system that we are now setting up will be proof against all that. It patently will not. That is the advice that we are getting.
