(asked on 5th October 2015) - View Source
Question to the Home Office:
To ask Her Majesty’s Government whether they will consider introducing identity cards for all United Kingdom residents.
This question was answered on 19th October 2015
The Government has no plans to introduce an identity card system for British Citizens. The Biometric Residence Permit is issued to non-EEA nationals staying in the UK for more than six months. These provide evidence of the holders’ immigration status in the UK.
