Once more into the, er, breach?
The UK’s Armed Forces veterans are being tasked with one last mission – proving the government can successfully roll out a digital ID card scheme.
However, it seems the operation may already be running behind schedule. The virtual Veteran Card was originally slated to launch over the summer.
The Department for Science, Innovation and Technology (DSIT) announced on Friday it had launched a digital version of the Veteran Card, “which will make it easier and quicker to access key services and discounts via their smartphones.” The card can be used for establishing access to housing or mental health support, as well as for discounts on museum entry and rail fares.
In a statement, DSIT said the launch of the virtual Veteran Card was “part of government plans to deliver national renewal by transforming public services so they work around people’s lives and not the other way round.”
The card, it added, will be the first digital document to be stored in the GOV.UK One Login app.
DSIT said the app “provides the security and functionality for storing digital credentials as part of our national renewal agenda to create opportunity and make lives easier through better digital services.”
