Proceeding contribution from Baroness Scotland of Asthal (Labour) in the House of Lords on Monday, 23 January 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill on Identity Cards Bill 2005-06.


Identity Cards Bill

My Lords, I am certainly very happy to write to the noble Lord setting out what we think would be encompassed in the measure and to indicate whether there are any further or other instances when we think that it might be appropriate. I cannot think of any at the moment but I am very happy to do that. As I say, any orders laid under Clause 22 will be subject to the affirmative resolution procedure. I remind noble Lords that we would therefore be able to have a debate on whether things had or had not been appropriately included at that stage. That is the assurance that proper discussion could still be undertaken in that regard. We therefore invite the noble Baroness, Lady Seccombe, to withdraw Amendments Nos. 62E and 72A, to which she has spoken. We hope that noble Lords will accept government Amendments Nos. 63, 66 and 74. As I indicated, I shall return to the other matter at Third Reading.
