HC Deb 23 June 1988 vol 135 c681W
86. Sir John Biggs-Davison

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department what further consideration is being given to the possibility of introducing identity cards.

Mr. Douglas Hogg

We shall continue to consider the views and representations which are put to us from time to time on this matter. But, at present, we remain to be persuaded that there is a sufficiently strong case for reintroducing identity cards.
