                    [Summary] => In promulgating an Executive Order about the implementation of a National ID System, it can be safely presumed that our Executive Department has seen to it that it will not suffer the same fate as Administrative Order 308 issued by the then President Fidel V. Ramos on the same subject. A.O. 308 entitled "Adoption of a National Computerized Identification Reference System" was declared null and void by the Supreme Court in the case Ople vs. Torres (293 SCRA 141). While the vote was close (8-6), the majority opinion penned by Justice Reynato Puno shot down the A.O.

                    [Summary] => The draft of an executive order that would consolidate the different government-issued identification cards into a single ID system is now in the hands of President Arroyo, Executive Secretary Eduardo Ermita said yesterday.


In a press briefing, Ermita said the National Economic and Development Authority (NEDA) and the National Statistics Office (NSO) undertook the study that served as the basis of the EO.

It was first introduced in 1996 as the "National Computerized Identification Reference System" under Administrative Order 308. But it was torpedoed by the Supreme Court because the said A.O. reset the parameters of some basic rights of the citizens vis-a-vis the State and should therefore be covered by a law enacted by Congress not by a mere A.O.

In 1996, a similar plan was also adopted.It was denominated as a "national computerized identification reference system" ostensibly for a purpose that has nothing to do at all with the problems of national security and criminality confronting the present government although they were already existing then.
