"Mr President, my thanks to the Commission and to the previous speaker. So why does e-identification really matter? What matters is we have heard about access to public services in e-government and also to online shopping and e-commerce, and without it the best access that we can have would be limited and in the worst case scenario could be denied at all, so that is why e-identification is so important. What we are doing is creating one set of rules that covers 28 countries, covering 500 million people, and together we can tackle these challenges. Interoperability has previously been outlined, legal certainty also, because at the end of the day, e-identification really is about creating trust. Trust is key to e-ID, and by working together we can make this happen.
In my country we have just 29 days before we have an EU referendum, and it is vital that we – Britain – remain part of the European Union. We have influence over this very debate on e-identification, but if we leave, if we walk away from our closest neighbours and closest friends, we will have no say in this debate and yet we will still have to pay to have the privilege to trade. In my own constituency there are 250 000 jobs reliant on exports to the European Union, and I do not want to see our workplace rights jeopardised. Therefore, if we were to leave, we would be poorer, isolated and diminished, and that is why Great Britain has to remain part of the European Union."@en1
