Data (Use and Access) Bill [HL]Contribution
All these identity documents are physical documents; it therefore does not extend to digital documents. The Bill establishes a framework that could include all or some of these documents in digital verification services. DVS could further create new or similar identity documents. The Bill would not, as the law currently stands, make offences for an identity document created or verified by DVS to be misused or falsified in a way similar to how the Identity Documents Act 2010 makes it an offence for misuse or falsification of physical documents.
