'People's Panel' to see if UK wants Digital ID to cost 630K
"The People's Panel will debate how a digital ID can work for everyone. As part of this process, participants will engage with what a digital ID might look like to meet the guiding principles of trusted, useful and inclusive."
"Recruitment will be run by the Sortition Foundation, a UK-based social enterprise that promotes citizen assemblies, which appear to be the model for the panel."
"Frith has revealed further details of how the 'People's Panel for Digital ID' will work in response to a volley of Parliamentary written questions from Conservative MP Alex Burghart and independent MP James McMurdock."
The UK government is allocating £630,000 for a panel to discuss digital identity card plans. Minister James Frith announced the 'People's Panel for Digital ID,' which will involve a random selection of 100 to 120 participants from various households. Recruitment will be managed by the Sortition Foundation, promoting citizen assemblies. The panel aims to ensure diverse perspectives are included in the discussion. Meetings will be facilitated by Ipsos, and participants will be compensated for their involvement, starting in May.
