Proceeding contribution from Baroness Scotland of Asthal (Labour) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 15 November 2005. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Identity Cards Bill.
Identity Cards Bill
I assure the Committee that this scheme has no similarity to the poll tax, inasmuch as we think that it will work and it is good. Also, I remind your Lordships that one of the intriguing issues with the poll tax was that a number of people registered in the name of ““Mr Mouse””, whereas now Mr Mouse would have to have his biometrics taken before being placed in a position to take the provisions into account.
