Sinn Féin also has raised some concerns around the public services card. We had called for the roll-out of the card to be suspended, in the main on foot of the grave concerns raised by the Data Protection Commissioner and we believe those concerns need to be dealt with. We are concerned, as others are, that it could be a move towards a national ID scheme. As others, albeit not in this House, have mentioned, these concerns have to be addressed.
