The Manx government says it has no intention of introducing identity cards.
The authorities are keeping an eye on developments in the United Kingdom - and will assess the implications for the Island if and when ID cards become compulsory there.
Although the Manx government has a neutral stance on the issue - if the UK brings-in the cards, the only practical option may be to follow suit.
Chief Minister Tony Brown (pictured) says there's not much to fear about carrying a basic ID card - but the devil is in the detail:
More than 1,600 people living with dementia on Island
Warning over use of 'smart glasses'
Section of Peel prom to close for sewage works
Housing, windfarms and education concerning first-time voters
