Additional benefits of ID cards

There are additional benefits to the proposed system that have not been mentioned above.

Some groups in society such as those on low incomes or the elderly often do not have the forms of ID such as passport or driving licence that others take for granted. A national identity card will fulfil this need for them and allow them the ability to easily prove their identity.

Another benefit is that a national system that covers everybody will help forge a cohesive society and further the integration of ethnic minorities into British society.
