The release describes personalisation, chip encoding and inventory tracking within the existing issuance system, and quotes an authority official on the new production process 1. This is a supplier deployment statement, not an independent audit clearance. The stated document validity is not a contract duration. Price, procurement route, signing date and personal-data retention clauses remain unconfirmed.
