Clause 21 - Use for correcting inaccurate
Identity Cards Bill
10:30 am
Mr Richard Allan (Shadow Spokesperson for the Cabinet Office, Cabinet Office; Sheffield, Hallam, Liberal Democrat)
I have certainly never had any difficulty in spotting the difference between the right hon. Member for Skipton and Ripon (Mr. Curry) and the former Member whose surname was spelled ''Currie''. However, computer systems might have the problem that I referred to, and that is the key point.
The point about notification is important. The Minister said that data protection rules applied and then described a lot of cop-out clauses on how those rules apply. It would be preferable to ensure that the Secretary of State had an explicit duty.
