My Lords, I ask one question. The Isle of Skye, the Isle of Anglesey, which I know much better than the Isle of Skye, and north Pembrokeshire, for example, are remote areas. People there will not initially be called on to give their fingerprints. They will be able to take their photographs with a good video connection. Does that mean that the people of the rural areas will not be under such an obligation as people in say, Edinburgh, Glasgow, Aberdeen or even Llandudno—the people in the places where they have these offices? Will there be two tiers of people? The noble Lord will get my point, I am sure—I am talking about people in the remote areas where this is a remote facility and those in the cities where it is a face-to-face facility.
