Proceeding contribution from Neil Gerrard (Labour) 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 that the hon. Gentleman is wrong. The compulsory element in relation to public services in clause 15 relates not to designated documents but to individuals subject to compulsory registration. If the amendment were to have the effect that the hon. Gentleman suggests, there would be a problem, but the Home Secretary has made it clear that it will not.
