Moved by
Lord Hunt of Kings Heath
My Lords, I am sure that the whole House would wish me to thank the Minister for her careful stewardship of the Bill during its passage through your Lordships’ House. She will be aware that, last week, the House voted to provide compensation to holders of the ID cards that are to be taken out of circulation in the next few weeks. Do the Government now intend to honour the vote and the intention of the House of Lords last week?
--- Later in debate ---
The Minister of State, Home Office (Baroness Neville-Jones)
My Lords, I believe that this is a matter for the House of Commons.
Bill passed and returned to the Commons with an amendment.
