    "content": "opportunities, access to education outside the camps, citizenship, while others wanted voting rights after being lured by local politicians among other reasons. Vetting of double registered persons was conducted through committees comprised of members drawn from Immigration Department, National Registration Bureau, National Government Administrative officers and elders in the following sub-counties: Wajir South, Habasweni, Wajir East, Buna, Garissa, Ijara and Fafi. However, a total of 18,794 people were vetted. The emergence of COVID-19 Pandemic slowed down the adoption of the report and regularisation of the status of the persons who were vetted. The Constitution of Kenya provides that a person is a citizen by birth, if on the day of the person’s birth, whether or not the person is born in Kenya, either parent is a citizen of Kenya. The Government will ensure the process of closure of refugee camps is conducted in accordance with both national and international law and this is why UNHCR has been engaged from the outset. The UNHCR will develop a roadmap on how the process will be conducted and the government will work in partnership with UNHCR to implement the roadmap. Thank you, Hon. Speaker."
