Identity and Passport Service: Introducing the National Identity Scheme: How the Scheme will work and how it will benefit you (pdf).

The No2ID campaign comments:

"The document doesn't mention that once your details are in the database they are in there for life, that it is your responsibility to keep that data up to date and to not lose your card, that you can't check your record, that there are fines for any errors or if you fail to keep your data up to date, and that the National Identity Register Number will be used to track you for the rest of your life."

Our work is only possible with your support.
