Proceeding contribution from Lord Thomas of Gresford (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Monday, 19 December 2005. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Identity Cards Bill.


Identity Cards Bill

Does the noble Baroness not agree that her code may be excellent as a code but the letter, the repeat letter and the letter after that will all be generated by machines and no human thought will be given to it? This is not like interviewing codes under PACE; this is a system like the congestion charge where a machine churns out a document and the consequences follow from that.
