The Government’s proposed Digital ID scheme will require primary legislation, ensuring full scrutiny by Parliament.

The Government will consult widely with stakeholders and the public, through a public consultation. The consultation will be open for the public and experts who will be able to share their views on how the scheme is designed and implemented.
