Clause 5 - Applications relating to entries in Register
Identity Cards Bill
3:30 pm
Mr David Curry (Skipton and Ripon, Conservative)
It is important to understand how the scheme will work in practice, so it would be helpful if the Minister spelled out what we now call a narrative, in the political language of the time. I wonder if I have understood him right. I will give an illustration of what might happen, but I will not ask him to be clear on the issue. In Skipton there is a modern Jobcentre Plus, or social security office, which is well equipped with modern communications. That is the sort of standing establishment that could well be a front office for the UK Passport Service for the purposes that we are discussing.
