Whitehall must clarify ID plan
Sarah Arnott in Computing reports on more of the Information Commisioner’s concerns:
“The title ‘ID cards bill’ does not properly convey the nature of the scheme which is actually an introduction of a central register of UK citizens,” Thomas told the Commons’ home affairs select committee last week.
“The proposed national register would be the largest database of personal information in the UK and every member of society needs to know that their information is secure and used lawfully.”
