Home Department written question – answered at on 6 December 2001.
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department when he will give approval for a proof of age card in a standardised format.
The Government have no plans to develop a standard format for a proof of age card or to introduce a single national proof of age scheme. The Government welcome the recent initiative by the British Retail Consortium proposing to develop agreed standard design criteria and methods of accreditation for the various proof of age cards which currently exist so that retailers can be assured of the status of the cards presented to them.
