Proceeding contribution from Lord Hunt of Kings Heath (Labour) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 3 November 2010. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee proceeding on Identity Documents Bill.


Identity Documents Bill

My Lords, perhaps before the Minister answers, I could just ask her about what it says at the top of page 6 of the Bill, in Clause 10(3)(i). Following my noble friend’s intervention on qualifying the credit reference agency, I notice that there is an open-ended paragraph that says, "““any other person specified for the purposes of this section by an order made by the Secretary of State””." It would be helpful if the Minister could let me know either now or in writing what sort of ““any other person”” might be mentioned. There was a concern about the credit rating agency, but I would actually have a rather wider concern about the open-ended nature of that provision.
