Proceeding contribution from Baroness Scotland of Asthal (Labour) in the House of Lords on Monday, 12 December 2005. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Identity Cards Bill 2005-06.


Identity Cards Bill

I do not think one could, because Clause 43(1), which gives the definition of biometric information, constrains the general interpretation to be applied:"““‘biometric information’, in relation to an individual, means data about his external characteristics, including, in particular, the features of an iris or any other part of the eye””."
