Identity Documents Bill

Proceeding contribution from Lord Maxton (Labour) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 21 December 2010. It occurred during Legislative debate on Identity Documents Bill.
If no compensation is to be paid, then presumably the card will become the property of the person who holds it. We briefly debated that point when we considered the Bill. Does that mean that the person who now holds the card as their own property, as they are not being given any compensation for it, will be able to use it to prove their identity in certain circumstances, such as for young people in pubs, or whatever else it might be?
