Dear All I have always thought it sensible for a number to be issued at Birth And used throughout life. It could be an school number, library number, NI number indeed any interactions with the powers at b would be via the number. Helpfully the banks and credit cards companies could use it as well Ideally it would be implanted via chip and checked by hand held reader If linked to a GPS system lost children and vulnerable adults could be tracked and traced School truancy would be a thing of the past Offender management would be greatly enhanced. Many European visitors arrival on our shores without having to bother and pay for a passport merely showing their national I'd cards. We could save the trouble of carrying any documentation with a chipped ID number Local authorities could have an up to date snapshot shoot off their populations for planning of schools and health provision.
