    "content": "because it is a very serious issue. In my constituency, mothers travel to another sub-county in search of birth certificates. Sometimes they are told there are no forms after having travelled for several kilometres. I want to emphasise that there is need to have a centre in every sub- county. On security matters, because I may not have time to ask a question again, I want to add that sometimes we use our chiefs and assistant chiefs to collect birth certificates and take them to centres. I want to remind the Cabinet Secretary that in this country, we have administrative units where chiefs or assistant chiefs have passed on or retired and have not been replaced. A number of administrative units which were created like divisions in Teso South have not been operationalised. Kindly, can you do something about this because they play a critical role in security and in the process of acquiring birth certificates and Identity Cards? If there is no chief or assistant chief to vet, then our people will not get these very necessary services on time. Thank you, Hon. Speaker for the opportunity."
