Proceeding contribution from Countess of Mar (Crossbench) in the House of Lords on Monday, 1 November 2010. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee proceeding on Identity Documents Bill.

Identity Documents Bill

My Lords, I support the noble Lord, Lord Phillips, as does the Joint Committee on Human Rights. On page 3 of its summary, the Joint Committee states: "““Clause 3 of the Bill requires the Secretary of State to destroy all information recorded in the NIR within two months of the Bill receiving Royal Assent. We recommend that Clause 3 be amended to ensure that not only information held on the NIR but all other information collected in connection with the NIR be destroyed in line with the requirements of the Data Protection Act 1998, and without delay””." I support the amendment of the noble Lord, Lord Phillips.
