Labour Party Fringe: "National ID Cards - will they prevent underage sales?"

Date: 
Mon, 22/09/2008 - 1:00pm - 2:00pm

From 2010 the Government proposes to offer young people a National Identity Card. Will retailers have the technology to validate the card's details? Will a National ID Card work better than existing voluntary card schemes? And at what cost to the cardholder, the taxpayer and civil liberties?

At the Midland Hotel, Manchester

Speakers include Phil Booth from NO2ID (campaigner), Geoffrey Godbold from GamCare (gambling charity), Chris Ogden from TMA (tobacco) and Shane Brennan from ACS (shops).
