Identity Cards Bill

Proceeding contribution from Charles Clarke (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 13 February 2006. It occurred during Debate on bills on Identity Cards Bill.
I have seen that report. If one considers different biometrics, one sees that there are different issues for different communities. The biometrics for the face, the iris and for fingerprints and thumbprints give rise to different issues in each case. However, as I know my hon. Friend will accept, the point is simple and straightforward. The more biometrics we have, the more reliable and fraud-proof is the system. For example, it is better to have biometrics for all 10 fingers and thumbs than it is to have them for one.
