"content": " Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I beg to reply. The Ministry of State for Immigration and Registration of Persons has noted the burden the people of Garissa and the entire region have to shoulder in passport acquisition in terms of extra travel costs they incur to come to Nairobi to get the services. To address this problem and embrace the Government policy of bringing services closer to the citizens, my Ministry has put in its strategic plan an objective of decentralising passport issuance to all provincial headquarters including the Garissa office by the year 2012. The Ministry, therefore, will implement the 3082 PARLIAMENTARY DEBATE October 29, 2008 devolution of issuance of passports to Garissa as envisaged in the Ministerial Strategic Plan."
