HC Deb 09 February 1995 vol 254 cc377-8W
14 Mr. Dunn

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department what are his plans for the introduction of a national system of identity cards.

Mr. Howard

We plan to publish a Green Paper on identity cards in spring which will set out options for a national identity card scheme and invite views upon them. We will consider the way forward in the light of the comments we receive.
