Bill: Relaxation of Identity Card Requirements Act of 2960
Details
Submitted by[?]: Bismarckian National Resistance (BNR)
Status[?]: passed
Votes: This is an ordinary bill. It requires more yes votes than no votes. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.
Voting deadline: January 2961
Description[?]:
| If citizens are required to carry their identity cards with them at all times, then currently there must be a punishment for not doing so. Everything must be on a case by case basis; what if someone's identity card fell out of their pocket and they had not realized it before? We still need mandatory identity cards for identification for state services, etc., but their carrying should not be mandatory. Article 1: All citizens of the nation shall be issued with identity cards for the purposes of identification for state services and related reasons. However, the carrying of identity cards at all times is not mandatory. Article 2: Identity cards shall be legally acceptable proof of residence, date of birth, name, signature, image, kinship (to parents), and nationality/citizenship. However, they will not be acceptable as passports or drivers' licenses. |

Old value:: All citizens are issued with identity cards and are required to carry them at all times.

| Random fact: Cabinet ministers who disagree seriously with the head of government would usually be expected to resign. Parties within the cabinet may attempt to manoeuvre to replace the head of government though, for example by proposing a new cabinet bill or voting for an early election. |
