    "content": "Thank you Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, for giving me an opportunity to contribute to this very important Statement by the Committee on ICT. Let me begin by appreciating the work done by the Chairperson. I remember that even in the last quarter, I had a Statement that dealt with the issue of Safaricom. The way the Committee dealt with that report was something which is highly commendable. I must appreciate you for the good work. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, having said that, there is a big issue that we have been talking about in terms of Safaricom and all other Telcos. I am happy that you dealt with the issue. It is good to give credit where it is due. Earlier on if you went to Safaricom or any other telco, and you register a line there is no way you would know whether there is any other telephone line registered using your identification number. Now there is a short code - that came out as a result of a statement that I raised and the Committee took over the matter and ensured that today when you go and register a line there is a short code that you can be able to dial and it can show you all the other telephone numbers registered under your name - that was a brilliant way to be able to stop criminals from stealing your ID, putting their own pictures and using your ID card number to be able to register a line. Mr. Chairperson, Sir, I am happy with the work that you have done with the Committee, particularly with the County Printer’s Bill. I hope that the National Assembly will be able to expedite it and we can have it done. I am happy also with the work that you have done in terms of data protection. Today I spoke to somebody from CAK and they mentioned to me that they are in Turkana. The money that they are using is from the University Savers Fund to ensure that they procure for these elections, so that by the time we are going into the elections,"
