Identity Cards: Digital Technology
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Science, Innovation and Technology, what engagement his Department has had with (a) teachers and (b) trade unions on the introduction of digital ID cards.
Answered by Ian Murray
The Government will launch a public consultation on the new digital ID by the end of the year and has begun engaging with several key stakeholders already. We will continue to engage with a range of organisations over the coming weeks and months, including as part of the consultation to be launched by the end of this year.
Throughout the development of the new digital ID, the Government will work closely with expert stakeholders to make it as effective and inclusive as possible.
