£1,000惩罚为无法对更新ID卡片

最新的政府ID卡片计划显露了人将勇敢地面对罚款£1,000为未参加生物统计的扫瞄。

范围从£125的惩罚为不通知ID卡片的损失的政府，对£250为不申请卡片或失踪一个任命为指印和面部扫瞄，在家庭办公室咨询文件显露了。

The fines would apply to foreign nationals entering or living in the UK, who will be required to have ID cards from November — ahead of the cards’ introduction for UK citizens next year.

Foreigners persistently failing to apply or turn up for scans face a charge of up to £1,000 but there would be a reduction in fine of up to £100 for anyone who could prove extenuating circumstances for non-compliance.

Any foreign national with limited leave to stay in the UK failing to apply or turn up for a scan three times in five years would have their remaining leave curtailed.

The Home Office documents predict the cards will be fitted with a “tamperproof chip” containing encrypted information, which would include the holder’s face, two fingerprints, personal details and immigration status.

Airport union Unite recently called for consultation on airport workers being among the first groups in the UK to need ID cards.

The widespread rollout to UK citizens, known as ‘Borders phase II’, is now slated to begin in 2012 - two years later than indicated in an earlier government action plan.

Critics of the scheme said the perceived two-year slip in the widespread rollout of the cards is another sign of wavering support among Gordon Brown’s government for ID cards. Doubts in the scheme were further exacerbated by Accenture and BAE Systems pulling out of the procurement process to build the ID card computer system.
