No2ID public meeting on Wednesday
Jun. 27th, 2005 03:19 pmWed, 29th Jun 2005 — Even Bigger Brother, No2ID Public Meeting
In stark contrast to the government's failure to openly discuss their proposals, No2ID will be holding a public meeting to discuss the contents and implications of the UK Identity Card Bill. Speakers will include:
Discussions will pick up on the poorly publicised and less understood parts of the Identity Cards Bill that form the heart of the government's proposals: the National Identity Register, a vast database of over 60 million people's personal information and biometrics, and the audit trail that will record when and where any check is made on the Register, effectively building up a profile of a persons daily activity.
The meeting is free and open to all. However, space is limited. Register, and confirm your place
No2ID welcomes anyone regardless of their previous knowledge or understanding of the issues, and especially urges those who are undecided or interested in knowing more to come along.
Date: Wednesday, 29th June 2005
