Identity Cards Bill

I am pleased that the figure has been made public, but does my hon. Friend accept that some of us still have concerns about the cost? The biggest problem is the cost of the IT infrastructure. We do not want another Rural Payments Agency problem, where the IT was renegotiated as the scheme was being introduced, so it would be helpful if the Government said that, rather than hiding behind commercial confidentiality, they are prepared to share such information with the House so that we can be sure that the IT consultants do not run off and make a bomb out of the proposal. Does my hon. Friend agree?
