Proceeding contribution from Lord Lyell of Markyate (Conservative) 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

I support the purport of these amendments. I will not repeat what the noble Lord has said, but I ask the following question for clarification: where subsection (8) refers to chief officers and chief constables of police and other services, am I right in thinking that that means that the information can, with the agreement of that chief officer, be passed to any constable within that service, where he thinks that is necessary and the chief constable has approved it?
