British national identity card - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Bill, it is the National Identity Register database that is the key component. driving licence or passport will be automatically added to the National Identity Register, so losing the option of not registering. The unique National Identity Numbers would potentially make possible the creation of a massive virtual database including the Police DNA database, GCHQ electronic surveillance database and phone and internet surfing records. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/British_national_identity_card

Guardian Compulsory scheme is years away - and only if parliament agrees It envisages that in the first stage a national identity register will be set up, with combined passport/ID cards and driving licence/ID cards issued from 2007-08 to those who renew their passports and to foreign nationals. The draft legislation to introduce a national identity card scheme in Britain, published yesterday, sets out the two stages in which the measure will eventually cover every British citizen over 16 or who is legally resident in the UK for three months or more. They include a passport identity card; a driving licence photocard; a residence permit for foreign nationals; a special residence permit for Irish nationals living in Britain; and a plain identity card for those who do not qualify or wish to have one of the other cards. www.guardian.co.uk /print/0,3858,4910955-103685,00.html

GNN - Government News Network Proposals for a national compulsory identity cards scheme, to strengthen national security and protect people's identity, were set out by the Home Secretary, David Blunkett, today as the Government published its Identity Cards Bill. The scheme will provide a simple and secure 'gold standard' for proving identity, protecting people from identity fraud and theft and providing them with a convenient means of verifying their identity in everyday transactions. "Identity cards will also help in the fight against illegal working and immigration and ensure public services are only used by those entitled to them. www.gnn.gov.uk /Content/Detail.asp?ReleaseID=137114&NewsAreaID=2

invsoc.doc It is proposed in the document of the Home Office Legislation on Identity Cards A Consultation (1), that people should not go on the National Identity Register until they are 16: : "Anyone entered on the Register must be 16 or over." (2.11). The current address should be identical on the Population and Identity Registers, so that there is no distinction between "government" and "identity". This knowledge could be used to trace customers through the Population Register, provided the NI number is the same as the identity number and the latter is on the register. www.stakeholder.cwc.net /invsoc.doc

Response to NO2ID Petition: against identity cards and the National Identity Register Proposals for a national compulsory identity cards scheme, to strengthen national security and protect people's identity, were set out on 29 November 2004 when the Government published the Identity Cards Bill. Identity cards will provide every person in this country with an easy and secure way of proving their identity, of demonstrating their right to be here and of asserting their place in the community. Our liberties will be strengthened if our identity is protected from theft; if we are guaranteed access to the services to which we are entitled; and if our community is better protected from terrorists and organised criminals, and from those who seek to abuse the immigration rules and public services. www.number-10.gov.uk /output/Page6909.asp

idcard_faq.html The proposal for a national card had angered civil libertarians and law reform groups, partly because the card would be used to enforce a part payment health system, partly because it was to be established without protections in law, and partly because it would create significant problems for certain minority groups. The establishment of personal identity in the new borderless Europe is a contentious issue, but is one which appears (to many people) to be a broadly acceptable trade-off for the convenience of greater freedom of movement within the union. Identity (ID) cards are in use, in one form or another in numerous countries around the world. www.privacy.org /pi/activities/idcard/idcard_faq.html

EPIC - National ID and REAL ID Act Organizations such as the American Association of Motor Vehicle Administrators, National Association of Evangelicals, American Library Association, Association for Computing Machinery (pdf), National Council of State Legislatures, American Immigration Lawyers Association (pdf), and National Governors Association are among those against the legislation. In conjunction with the House hearing on the National ID card proposal, EPIC held a "Shred-In" National ID Card protest (view photo gallery and flyer in PDF) on Capitol Hill at the "East Front House Grass Area" near the intersection of Independence and First Streets SE. National ID cards have long been advocated as a means to enhance national security, unmask potential terrorists, and guard against illegal immigrants. www.epic.org /privacy/id_cards

The Scotsman - Politics - Whitehall watchdog's alarm over identity cards register THE introduction of a national identity register will represent a "sea change" in the relationship between the state and individuals, Whitehall’s information watchdog warned yesterday. The register is a key part of the ID card scheme being brought in by David Blunkett, the Home Secretary, under which biometric features, such as fingerprints and eye patterns, will be included in new passports and driving licences from 2007. Voluntary trials of biometric identification have begun, and hi-tech identity cards could become compulsory within a decade, under Mr Blunkett’s proposals. thescotsman.scotsman.com /politics.cfm?id=653352004

Identity Sentinel - Identity Theft FAQ Even if you do not register with the National Do Not Call Registry, you can still prohibit individual telemarketers from calling by asking them to put you on their company's do not call list. I called to register my phone number, but the message said that the phone number I was calling from did not match the phone number I entered. The FTC's decision to create the National Do Not Call Registry was the culmination of a comprehensive, three-year review of the Telemarketing Sales Rule (TSR), as well as the Commission's extensive experience enforcing the TSR over seven years. www.identitysentinel.net /DNCQA.htm

Uncorrected Evidence 130 Is there not a case for sensibly including some of that core information on the National Identity Register, if we are dealing with a set of people of whom identity, I think it is broadly accepted, is a very important issue for proper functioning of the asylum system. You have argued in your evidence that clause 1, which sets limits on registrable facts, or intends to set limits on registrable facts in the National Identity Register, is insufficient because there could still be links to the Police National Computer or the National DNA database in some way. Q729 Bob Russell: Mr Smith, you say that you are "unhappy with the proposed National Identity Scheme Commissioner" and with the extent of the powers that he or she will have as set out in clauses 25 and 26. www.publications.parliament.uk /pa/cm200304/cmselect/cmhaff/uc130-viii/uc13002.htm

Government unveils ID card scheme The cards, which had to be dropped ahead of the election, will be linked to a National Identity Register holding information on all UK residents. The ID scheme will cost an estimated £3bn and see each UK citizen being issued with a "biometric" card bearing fingerprints and other personal details which will also be stored on a new National Identity Register database. Public and private sector organisations will be able to check a person's identity against the register, with their permission. www.infowars.com /articles/ps/uk_nat_id_gov_unveils_id_card_scheme.htm

UK ID cards to be issued with first biometric passports The Register The new model passports are closely linked to the scheme anyway, so even without the ID card, being issued one would mean you were added to the national identity register, but the arrival of an actual card along with the new passport will make its presence far more visible, far earlier, to the general public. The fact that people who want passports, then probably driving licences (then benefits and healthcare, as indicated in the "consultation") will have no choice but to be registered need not be viewed as tripping the compulsion switch, because within a steadily shrinking service-free pen it will be possible for people to exist without being registered. Eventually everyone lawfully resident in the UK would be required to register for a card - but there would be no compulsion to carry the card or to produce it without good reason. www.theregister.co.uk /2004/10/11/new_passport_equals_new_id_card

National Identity Register: 14 Jun 2004: Written answers (TheyWorkForYou.com) To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department what data sharing arrangements there will be between the proposed National Identity Register and the UK Population Register. "Legislation on Identity Cards —A Consultation" (Cm 6178), makes clear that there will be no general power to share data held on the National Identity Register. Applications for one of the family of identity cards will require checks to be made against other databases only to establish that an application for a card, or related purpose such as reissue, is genuine. www.theyworkforyou.com /wrans/?id=2004-06-14.170335.h

Spy Blog: Citizen Information Project and National Identity Register plans This delay would be needed in order to shoehorn the extra personal data from Births, Marriages and Deaths registers into the National Identity Register. There is still no clarification how the massive database proposed in the controversial Children Bill will integrate or compete for resources with either the CIP or the NIR. Alternatively, the ID Scheme Bill will be made even more wide ranging and there will not be a specific list of exactly what data is to be stored on the NIR or the smart card written clearly on the face of the Bill. www.spy.org.uk /spyblog/archives/000482.html

The proposal, first reported in the current issue of The Chronicle of Higher Education, is supported by the American Council on Education, the American Association of State Colleges and Universities, and the State Higher Education Executive Officers Association, but opposed by other education organizations, like the National Association of Independent Colleges and Universities. The Bush administration opposed security measures for new microchip-equipped passports that privacy advocates contended were needed to prevent identity theft, government snooping or a terror attack, according to State Department documents. www.privacydigest.com /2004/11/29.html

NO2ID: an executive summary of the ID cards bill As if the dangers of a large National Identity Register were not enough, clause 3(3) intro¬duces a presumption of accuracy in that Register, meaning that any consequences of inevitable errors in the database will be left with the individual, who will have no opportu¬nity for redress. Clause 2 (4) of the Bill allows the Secretary of State to enter a person onto the National Identity Register without that person’s consent. The number and the card register are used by a variety of agencies and organisations as their administrative basis. www.no2id.net /IDSchemes/bill_summary.php

Identifying Risks: National Identity Cards These will be national identity cards, and you will have no choice about getting one and registering in the national database if you apply for a passport or driving licence. More recently, legislative proposals to create national standards for driver's licenses, which are currently entirely at the discretion of the individual states, might create the machinery for a national identity card. The setting up of a national integrated database is considered in the episode ‘Big Brother’ and also Series 1 – though this episode deals primarily with how to get the Civil Service to do anything they don't want to do, rather than the question of who actually wants the database set up. www.law.ed.ac.uk /ahrb/script-ed/vol2-1/idcards.asp

Articles - British national identity card Currently, the closest parallel to the National Identity Register is the requirement for convicted offenders to register on the Violent and Sex Offender Register. National opinion polls suggest that the public are generally supportive of the scheme in principle if the Cards are free; the government's own surveys, published with the ID Cards Bill, showed only 7% of the public willing to pay more than £20[9], against the government's initial estimate (it is now more than that) of £93. The Identity Cards Bill was included in the Queen& on November 23, 2004, and introduced to the House of Commons on November 29. gaple.com /articles/British_national_identity_card?...

British national identity card - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Although the focus of the proposal is on the identity cards themselves, not least in the title of the Bill, it is the National Identity Register database that is the key component. There has also been speculation the motorists could be required to register for an identity card under Section 28 of the Road Safety Bill, which makes it a criminal offence to refuse to hand in a driving licence and buy a new one specified by the Secretary of State [12]. Cards were re-introduced during World War II under the National Registration Act 1939, but were abandoned seven years after the end of that war in 1952, amid widespread public resentment. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/British_national_identity_card   (6246 words)

Govt considering national identity cards- The Times of India Its basic aim is to create a National Population Register which will have both the National Register of Indian Citizens and that for non-citizens. NEW DELHI: Government on Saturday said it is "actively considering" issuing multi-purpose national identity cards (MNICs) to all citizens but voiced serious concern over India's burgeoning population, which was expected to overtake that of the most populous country China in the year 2035. The MNIC project, the Minister said, once completed will not only enhance the security cover of the country but also facilitate national level e-governance programme which is one of the important agenda items of the Common Minimum Programme to ensure that Government services reach people in every nook and corner. timesofindia.indiatimes.com /articleshow/773237.cms   (6246 words)
