Clause 13 - Invalidity and surrender of ID cards
Identity Cards Bill
3:30 pm

Mr Des Browne (Minister of State (Citizenship, Immigration and Counter-Terrorism), Home Office; Kilmarnock and Loudoun, Labour)
Clearly, it is the implied permission of the Secretary of State because the Secretary of State is responsible for the state of law. If such matters need further clarification, I shall provide it in some other way. However, that is the argument. If my response has allowed members of the Committee to consider whether they agree that the clause should stand part, I do not have anything to add.
Question put and agreed to.
Clause 13 ordered to stand part of the Bill.
