Identity Documents Bill

Proceeding contribution from Alan Johnson (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 9 June 2010. It occurred during Debate on bills on Identity Documents Bill.
That is a sensible suggestion, except that some people who have ID cards do not have passports. They are part of that 20% of the population who generally will not have a driving licence or bank account. We used to call them the socially excluded—indeed, the Government are supposed to be wedded to the idea of helping them—and many of them will not have that facility because they do not have a passport, but my hon. Friend's point is relevant, and I shall address it further shortly.
