Mr. Robert Watt:

One needs to go through the process of identity verification, the SAFE II process, where we then can establish who a person is. We can establish that by taking a photograph and matching it against one's records in order that we know who a person is. At the end of that process a person is given a public service card, which one can then use to access services. One can put that card away and never look at it ever again.
