What does the National IDCard scheme involve?

There will be a
national database
holding all theinformation people give them.
•
There will be
ID cards
in some form.
•
If you
change your details
(for example your addressor name) you have to let them know, and
you couldbe fined
if you don’t.
•
Mostly,
you have to agree
to let someone get yourdetails from the database (for example youremployer).
•
However, whether you agee or not,
the Police andother Intelligence services can get your details
fromthe database.
•
There will be a
National Identity Card Commissioner
who you can complain to, and who is responsible forkeeping your details safe.
•
It will be
illegal to have fake ID
, or
tamper
with thedatabase. It is perfectly legal not to apply for an IDcard.

They will
cost you money
(up to £30 for the first card).
