Identity Cards Bill

What I can say from some experience of businesses is that by the year you develop your ambitions according to the budget available. If you have a Chancellor, rather than a chief financial officer, he will soon put you in your place in saying what is affordable and what is not. You do not simply assume that everything desirable will have a ticket on it and that will be part of the ultimate cost. That is not the way in which the world works.
