Proceeding contribution from Baroness Scotland of Asthal (Labour) 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

We are working on that, which is why I thought it would comfort the noble Lord to talk about the work we have already started, mentioned by my honourable friend Tony McNulty in another place, on authority. We are going to see how this will be dealt with. It would be important that those who seek to use these services should be approved and accredited in the way I describe. That gives us the safety belt, the security that we need, to ensure that we are not going to have rogue elements entrusted with this sort of process. That is a good, practical way of dealing with it.
