  @ MP voted aye to give those who bought ID Cards a discount on a new passport. 
  
  The majority of MPs voted against adding a new clause to the Identity Documents Bill which would have given a discount on the cost of a new passport those who bought ID cards. 
  
  
  The proposed clause read:
  :(1) This section applies to a person ("P") who-
  
  (a) held a valid ID card on the day on which this Act was passed, and
  
  (b) paid a fee for the card.
  
  (2) On the first occasion after the passing of this Act on which P applies for a passport, the fee charged for the passport shall be reduced by Â£30.'.- (Meg Hillier.)
  
  
  
  The vote was technically on the question:
  
  :That the clause be read a Second time.
