A national digital ID could hand the government the tools for population-wide surveillance - and if history is anything to go by, ministers probably couldn't run it without cocking it up.

Digital IDs are essentially reusable online credentials that can be used for everything from accessing government services and financial products to signing contracts and verifying employees.

The eID function enables online identity verification for various public sector services, significantly reducing the need for in-person visits to government offices.
