    "content": " Madam Temporary Deputy Chairlady, we support the amendment. It adds value in terms of ensuring that the technological advancement we will be making in these elections, by doing electronic voter registration, is properly covered in the Regulations. I know that already this equipment has started arriving. As I told the House earlier today, I just came from a workshop in Mombasa, where the Chairman of the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) confirmed that some of the equipment is already in the country. Training will start soon. We have 5,000 kits to enable us start off. Therefore, it is important that these Regulations take into consideration the BVR equipment that we will be using in our registration. Madam Temporary Deputy Chairlady, I will be responding substantively on the issue raised by the Member for Rangwe, because it is a matter on which we have already been asked to issue a Ministerial Statement; as to the state of preparedness, including for the 80 new constituencies, and the timetable up to the 4th of March, 2012. Thank you."
