Proceeding contribution from Desmond Swayne (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 16 March 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill on Identity Cards Bill.
Identity Cards Bill
When I was mobilised to serve in Iraq, which was not a voluntary process, I was required to produce a passport in order to travel—[Interruption.] It was scrutinised at Brize Norton. That again was not a voluntary process. Other officers and soldiers had to acquire a passport in order to comply. I suppose, ultimately, the decision to join the armed forces was voluntary. Was that what the Government meant?
