Proceeding contribution from Lord Phillips of Sudbury (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 14 December 2005. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Identity Cards Bill.


Identity Cards Bill

That is the point. It is one thing for the Government to say that they do not intend to charge; that is fine for this Government and this Minister, and I am very happy to hear it. However, I am concerned about what may happen at some future time. My Amendment No. 261 gives the Government the power to have different categories of fees, and I am not sure that that power exists at the moment. If it does, will he kindly tell me where it resides, because it would make my amendment redundant?
