Proceeding contribution from Lord Bassam of Brighton (Labour) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 23 November 2005. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Identity Cards Bill.

Identity Cards Bill

I would have thought it was fairly clear that when the individual is alive it is down to that individual to ensure that the agency responsible for the national identity register is kept abreast of the registrable facts. Of course when that person ceases to be alive they cannot do so, and it will be for the GRO to ensure that the agency is advised of the death as it has been reported to it and recorded.
