		The Home Office’s national identity cards programme has come in for considerable criticism since it was first proposed as a benefits entitlement scheme in 2002.
		Many countries have ID cards, but the UK scheme, based on the creation of a central identity register holding personal data and 13 biometrics (face, two irises, 10 fingers) for the entire adult population, has no precedent.
		The plan to introduce the first cards by 2008 was announced in 2003, at a time when the enabling legislation was expected to be passed before last May’s General Election so the procurement could start in June.

		In short, he's an exceptionally astute businessman, and at an age when most people have been retired for a number of years, Parker's still actively overseeing his two hotels, his ranch, a third property currently being developed, and the Santa Barbara County winery that bears his name.
