Proceeding contribution from Lord Garnier (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 13 February 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill on Identity Cards Bill.

Identity Cards Bill

I think I understand the point that the hon. Member for Birmingham, Selly Oak (Lynne Jones) was making, and she is entirely right to make it. According to the Government’s commercial case, a possible 44,000 private operators will have access to the national identity register. [Interruption.] I note that the Minister disagrees. I cannot imagine why that figure is in a Government document. Perhaps he has not read it.
