Private e-ID Services
The House of Representatives will consider a bill at its next session that would allow some or all electronic identification services to be assigned to and managed by government or private entities. The decisions authorizing such assignments would set out the terms for providing the service and the amount users must pay, while the competent government authority would retain responsibility for managing the electronic identification system. The bill would authorize the minister, with Cabinet approval, to determine the services, fees and exemptions. It would also remove the requirement for a prior decision before public entities could accept electronic transactions, while retaining the approved technical requirements. The Financial and Economic Affairs Committee has recommended approving the bill. An accompanying study noted that it could reduce the costs of paper-based and administrative transactions and support local technology companies.
