Home Affairs (9 May 2013)

Damian Green: I would like to thank all those who have contributed to this debate. In the time remaining, I shall restrict my response to matters relating to home affairs and justice. I know that other important issues were raised, but I think I should operate within that limit. My other self-denying ordinance is to respond only to matters that are in the Queen’s Speech, rather than to the many that...

Queen’s Speech — Debate (2nd Day) (9 May 2013)

Lord Brooke of Alverthorpe: ...spend with all this paraphernalia of new checks of one sort or another that will be introduced on the NHS, on GPs and so on. The basic answer to all of this would have been to come together with an identity card, as the previous Labour Government were planning and working through. Indeed, it was a former Conservative Government who first thought of this idea, going back to 1996, I think....

Outlawries Bill: Debate on the Address — [Ist Day] (8 May 2013) See 1 other result from this debate

David Blunkett: Perhaps it would be easier for Labour to vote for the Bill if there was a verifiable way of ensuring that it could be implemented. Will the Prime Minister take a suggestion from an old hand that might square the circle between the Home Secretary and the Business Secretary on the immigration proposals and the deregulation Bill? We could go back to the idea of a verifiable identity register,...

Commonwealth and Commonwealth Charter — Motion to Take Note (7 March 2013)

Baroness Royall of Blaisdon: ...made to monitor the elections. While welcoming the elections, I have deep concerns about the fact that more that 12 million women will not be able to participate in them because they do not have an identity card and therefore cannot register to vote. That says much about the status of women in our Commonwealth, although some wonderful advances are being made by women in Pakistan, which I...

Oliver Colvile: ...”. The hon. Member for Ceredigion (Mr Williams) suggested that we should perhaps ensure that people with autism or Asperger’s, whether they are teenagers or older, carry some form of identity card so that the police know who they are dealing with, rather than behaving in what I have to say can be a slightly offhand manner. I am sure that the police were doing everything they...

Electoral Registration and Administration Bill — Committee (1st Day) (Continued) (29 October 2012) See 1 other result from this debate

Lord Rennard: Indeed, I understand that and we would not do so lightly. We had significant differences over the national identity card scheme, which we were told would cost something like £300 million. What I am suggesting in terms of electoral registration would obviously cost far less. The essential principle, rather than the costings, is that this is a one-way process with data whereby we are...

Electoral Registration and Administration Bill: Second Reading (24 July 2012)

Lord Empey: ...examples we have heard. I strongly support changes to that proposal. I also do not understand the reticence about having identification for individuals. We introduced a thing called the electoral identity card, which any individual elector can have access to if they do not possess a passport, driving licence, Senior Smartpass or some other photographic form of identification. You can get...

Scrap Metal Dealers Bill (13 July 2012) See 1 other result from this debate

David Nuttall: I am grateful to the right hon. Gentleman for clarifying that point. It will be interesting to hear whether the Minister takes that view when we hear from him.

The Association of Chief Police Officers estimates that metal theft costs the UK economy approximately £770 million a year. The...

Baroness Smith of Basildon: My Lords, on this clause the Committee has benefited from the contributions of the noble Baronesses, Lady Hamwee and Lady Meacher. Looking through the clause, I found this issue difficult. It is very easy to identify the problem, and we want to address it and resolve this issue.

Bills Presented — House of Lords Reform Bill: Clause 25 — Commencement (27 June 2012)

Wayne David: ...of birth will also need to be provided. Currently our view is that this will involve one document from the list below”. That list consists of Commonwealth or EU passport, Commonwealth or EU identity card, and a British passport. Again, it is perfectly possible that a British citizen might not have a passport. Therefore, yet again, the Government are being too prescriptive and are not...

John Hemming: We do not need an ID card to have some way of checking an identity. I would not go for the fingerprint solution; I think the video camera is—[ Interruption. ] The reason I like the idea of colour on the finger is that it would be a badge of honour. People who had done their civic duty and cast a vote could say to those who had not, “I’m one up on you—I’ve been...
