Identity Cards Bill
We in Parliament are entitled to determine whether something is criminal or civil. We collectively are of the view that the penalties which are appropriate under this Bill, should remain civil and not criminal. Parliament, I am sure your Lordships will be reassured to know, is still sovereign.
