The UK ID cards run off of database files. This stores all the fingerprint ID of all UK citizens, however not people from abroad. This is also a fail safe in case a person loses their card.
The purpose of an ID card is to provide information about the card holder, such as criminal past, GCSE results and other such. I feel that it meets this goal, however illegal immigrants will have no record of their past and it will be hard to get ahold of such a database. It will provide an easy way of locating people however, people could possibly find ways of fooling the system.
Also, it is an idea already with a huge against group against it, as it requires a big amount of information, which people may not want to have on a card.
