(Reuters) -British Prime Minister Keir Starmer is moving forward with plans to introduce digital identification systems as part of efforts to overhaul the country's asylum and immigration system, with an announcement anticipated as early as his party's conference this month, the Financial Times reported on Friday.
The finer details of the scheme were still being ironed out and the timeline could change, the report added, citing two people briefed on the matter.
