Drew Wagar on UK ID Cards and the NIR
Drew's blog is already in my blogroll, but he's promising a couple of new entries on some specifics of the proposed UK ID Card implementation, and that's definitely worth a mention in its own right, because he knows what he's talking about.
Here's the first one, on ID Cards and the NIR (National Identity Register).
Actually that name (NIR) is a bit misleading, because the current proposals are for it to be a National Register of Credentials, Entitlements, Stuff About You and an Audit Trail, but obviously NARCESAYAT isn't a very catchy acronym. I just hope it doesn't mean something rude in Turkish or Armenian.
Travelling to Kashmir?
Further to yesterday's post, I understand that the Pakistan High Commission in the UK has also set up special services, both in its London office and at major (I assume UK) airports, for those trying to travel to Kashimir. I'm having some trouble getting at the High Commission's website , but here is a page with most of the relevant details of Pakistan consulates and so on.
