Biometric information on DNA and voice is collected when voluntarily provided by the people or the agency

Ugh, how is it voluntarily provided if its mandatory for everyone over the age of 14?

DNA and voice is voluntary at least for now, but they will do a mandatory iris scan. Doesn't make it any better in my books. The fact that the government even wants this much biometric data is ridiculous.

I want to know what others government collect (both Europe and Asia)

And is the iris scan visible? I have just had my card, I don't saw the polices do any iris scan.
