alone in the face of these serious flaws, he doubts the safety of the new ePassport and calls a halt to the proceedings.
was "obvious case of my control, that the results of pilot project were not evaluated properly and that the relevant passport authority was not in a position to assess the procedures for data protection and safety. Due to the serious shortcomings, I have compared this Passport Agency and the Ministry of Mecklenburg -Vorpommern issued a complaint, "said Neumann.
"In order to achieve the processing of biometric data required level of data protection, I've been a number of recommendations. The procedure for collection and submission of passport application data should be resumed only after the implementation of these recommendations."
