Proceeding contribution from Earl of Onslow (Conservative) 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

If that is the case and if the Minister was saying, which I think he was, that we should let the thing bed down and that then, if we think that we ought to be able to do it, we will do it—he has now come forward and said that there is not the power in the Bill to do that—surely, the answer is to get his legal eagles in the Box to draft an amendment on Report which will allow him to do it. Then everyone is off the hook.
