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


Identity Cards Bill

My Lords, the Government have said that the scheme will be self-financing. People will have to pay whatever is necessary to meet the costs of the scheme. That is my understanding of it. Moreover, identity cards were issued free during the Second World War.
