Proceeding contribution from Baroness Anelay of St Johns (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Monday, 30 January 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill on Identity Cards Bill 2005-06.


Identity Cards Bill

My Lords, I am grateful to the noble Baroness for her assurances. I am perfectly well aware that the Government have, throughout, sought to explain to those who will be operating this system, particularly those in the trade unions, that they will not fall foul of a prosecution if they were only trying to do their job. My concern is that subsection (4) does not clearly give them the defence they require, but as the noble Baroness has so clearly given that assurance on record today, I beg leave to withdraw the amendment. Amendment, by leave, withdrawn. [Amendment No. 99 had been withdrawn from the Marshalled List.] Clause 31 [Tampering with the Register etc.]: [Amendment No. 100 not moved.] Clause 33 [Imposition of civil penalties]:
