Identity Documents Bill

Proceeding contribution from Baroness Hoey (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 9 June 2010. It occurred during Debate on bills on Identity Documents Bill.
As one of the Labour Members who opposed identity cards from the beginning, I am delighted that the Bill is one of the first pieces of legislation that the new Government are putting through. Will the Home Secretary say something about people who went ahead and rather stupidly bought an identity card? Does she feel that they should be recompensed or does she think they should have listened to those of us on both sides of the House who said, ““This is the wrong scheme and you shouldn't be doing that””?
