in the UK, plans are still moving slowly forward for introduction of id cards - but the timetable keeps changing as does the contents of the id cards as does the modus operandi of how it will all happen ...
immigrants, I believe, have had to have an id card for the past 12-18 months. Airside workers at some airports are to be some of the first to be issued. We can voluntarily apply (for £30) in a couple of years, with the plan being for them to become compulsory and issued simultaneously with passports (unless we have a change of government).
