smh.com.au Every person in the world would be fingerprinted and registered under a universal identification scheme to fight illegal immigration and people smuggling outlined at a United Nations meeting today. The plan was put forward by Pascal Smet, the head of Belgium's independent asylum review board, at a roundtable meeting with ministers including Australian Immigration Minister Philip Ruddock this afternoon. Mr Smet said the European Union was already considering a Europe-wide system... "..."It's a basic rule of management that if you want to manage something, you measure it. It's the same with human beings and migration. "But instead of measuring it, you have to register them." Mr Smet said the scheme would give people dignity by giving them an identity if their papers had been lost or destroyed...." Regards, Don
