Identity Cards Bill

My Lords, surely Clause 12 reads:"““An individual to whom an ID card has been issued—" that is voluntarily—"““must notify the Secretary of State about . . . every prescribed change of circumstances affecting the information recorded about him””." Subsection (6) says:"““An individual who contravenes a requirement imposed on him by or under this section should be liable to a civil penalty not exceeding £1,000””." If you register voluntarily and you do not tell them about your change of address, you are liable to a civil penalty of £1,000. Compulsory registration is neither here nor there.
