Proceeding contribution from Earl of Erroll (Crossbench) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 16 November 2005. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Identity Cards Bill.


Identity Cards Bill

If there is a statutory duty that the database be secure and reliable, what will the position be if that turns out not to be the case? Will Her Majesty’s Government be liable in law? Maybe it is not safe for them to promise that it will be secure, given that I suspect it may not be.
