Union citizens should thus be allowed to use the data stored in the storage medium of their identity card to identify themselves towards private entities. However, the verification of the fingerprints stored on the storage medium should only be carried out by duly authorised staff and only when the document is required to be produced by lawSuch a verification should only be carried out by duly authorised staff and only when the document is required to be produced by law.
