Mr Speaker, when we deal with new technology, particularly at the level of the advanced system development that this card has been linked to, and the attention to security matters, one would work towards ensuring that there are no complications. But I cannot definitively say that there won't be problems. I believe that the steps that are being put in place, particularly with respect to the factory-acceptance testing and the site-acceptance testing, which we have given a number of weeks to allow for, will help us to avoid some of the pitfalls that arise when one develops such a card.
With respect to the election, we have been in constant discussion with the Independent Electoral Commission and, in fact, we developed the card with their advice. The card will have two barcodes: one that will reflect the barcode that you have on the current green ID book, which is the information related to your registration as a voter, and a second barcode, which will contain the unique biometric details of the holder of the ID card. In fact, we believe that we have addressed the needs of voters regarding the use of the smart card should they have it - those who will have it when we have the election next year.
