Proceeding contribution from Lord Macdonald of Tradeston (Labour) 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

Surely, year by year that will be the business of the departments of the Treasury and, ultimately, of Parliament. It seems quite wrong of noble Lords to say—over a period of 10 years, over hundreds of departments and agencies and over a multiplicity of possible uses—““Give us an exact figure””. That is not sensible.
