SA> The Beattie Government is considering partnering with commercial
SA> service providers on the project.

Of course they are -- whenever the government introduces new measures to take
away privacy, there's always a corporate shill behind it, egging it on. . . :|

SA>  The Government said partnering would not compromise the privacy of
SA> licence holders as the different types of information stored on the
SA> chip would be physically separated.

And, certainly, the government MUST say this!

After all, they're never held accountable later when such schemes are exposed
to be nothing but corporate information-gathering!
