Proceeding contribution from Baroness Scotland of Asthal (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

Before the House resumes, I invite noble Lords to make a note in their diaries. We complete the Committee stage of this Bill. Noble Lords will remember that we had an initial demonstration of biometrics in this House on 14 November, which I attended. A further demonstration will be held in Committee Room 3 on the Committee Corridor starting at 10am on Thursday, 12 January 2006. I hope that noble Lords will take advantage of that opportunity if they wish to see how the biometric information is undertaken. House resumed: Bill reported with amendments.
