Immigration (Biometric Registration) (Civil Penalty Code of Practice) Order 2008

As a practical precaution, immigrants are likely to carry the card around because if somebody asks for it and they cannot produce it they will have to turn up at a police station, which will cause them a lot of additional problems. So most people will carry the card around with them.
