  Identity Cards Bill - Clause 5 - Applications relating to entries in Register
  
  --- MOTION EFFECT ---
  
  <p>Those voting Aye removed the Lords amendment to the <a href="http://www.publications.parliament.uk/pa/ld200506/ldbills/071/06071.i-ii.html"> Identity Cards Bill</a>.  The <a href="http://www.publications.parliament.uk/pa/ld200506/ldbills/028/06028.1-7.html#j004"> original text</a> had said in summary:</p> 
  
  <p class="indent">5(2) Where an individual applies for a designated document he <i>must </i>either apply to be entered in the National ID Register or, if he is already entered, confirm and correct the contents of his entry.</p>
  
  <p>The Lords had changed <i>"must"</i> to <i>"may, if he chooses"</i>, so that applying for an Identity Card would be voluntary, and not compulsory for people who needed to have a "designated document" such as a passport.</p>
