On the 6th March, the Home Secretary published the National Identity Scheme Delivery Plan 2008. This plan introduces the first Identity Cards for UK citizens in 2009. As part of the overall consultations on the Delivery Plan, the Identity and Passport Service has invited the Enterprise Privacy Group to convene and facilitate a series of workshops to explore key aspects of privacy, security and usability in the National Identity Scheme.

EPG is holding its Annual Members Forum on 7th-8th October 2008. Judging by last year's event the Forum represents one of the best gatherings of privacy savvy people in the UK.

Members and guests are invited to contribute to this year's Forum by making a presentation or running a workshop session. Those who do so will be eligible for free seats at the event, which includes access to both days of the Forum, meals and refreshments. Effectively a speaker will 'earn' an extra place at the Forum for his or her organisation.

Please contact This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it if you are interested in speaking at the Forum and, if so, on what topic you wish to present.
