He said the fact of being asked to attend an interview deterred many potentially fraudulent applicants.
The IPS estimated there had been about 10,000 successful fraudulent passport applications last year and was “committed to reducing this number”, he added.
From 2010/11, citizens will be able to decide whether they want an identity card or a passport.

Report from Kable’s Government Computing
The Home Office has confirmed that compulsory interviews for first time passport applicants have not led to a single rejected application
The face to face interviews, introduced in June 2007 as a precursor to the interviews intended for all applicants for identity cards, cost £50m to set up with an annual budget of £30m. They add around £12.50 to the £72 price of a passport.
Bernard Herden, executive director of the Identity and Passport Service, said the interviews were part of its work to deter and detect fraud. “This in particular is a deterrent factor,” he told BBC1’s Breakfast programme on 21 April 2008.
“People will have faded away and not come to us, because we’ve asked them things that show that we are on to them,” he added. “By the time we come to the interview, we wouldn’t expect many cases to be fraudulent.”
He added that the interviews will be better assessed in 12 months’ time, when a statistical analysis of their abilities as a deterrent will be available, and that 350 cases had been referred to its fraud unit of which some are ongoing.
The Home Office said that no passport applications had been refused from the 87,765 interviews held up to the end of March.
Conservative shadow immigration minister Damian Green told the BBC: “A significant chunk of the cost of a passport is now going on these interviews, which so far are proving to be completely useless.”

ReplyWell we already know this isn’t going to help. All that will happen is we will be forced to pay more, have more hassle getting one and give out our biometrics to store on a government database. Once they are on that database there will be no way to get them off it. So sitting back and saying wait and see is too little too late. The damage will already be done.

ReplyThe part of the article that caught my attention was ” People will be offered the choice of whether they want a passport or an identity card ” . While i agree that safety may be an issue this smackes too me of one way of bringing in identity cards through the back door ! .

I think the conclusion is a little of both. The government has to appear to be doing something about the terrorist threat and I suppose these methods have to be tried before they will know if it works.
If these centers are still in operation in 5 years without results then our safety is clearly not the agenda.
