    "content": "also expensive for it. So, when we have one unified identification system, it will save money for the Government. Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, another issue is about personal bio data. When we have this unified identification system, it will be easy to know where this person is from, where he stays and in which county he comes from. In our place, when somebody dies you cannot have his or her records. You are forced to go around all the offices seeking for information about this person. That is why relatives of most of our people who were working as civil servants and have died have not received their benefits. This is because they do not have information of this particular person who has died. So, when we have a unified identification system, it will be easy for the relatives to get information and claim the benefits of the late person. Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, identity cards are about security. Some Members have already said that but I just want to add one thing. When foreigners come to this country they get identification cards very easily by bribing immigration officers. When we have bio-data it will be very difficult for a foreigner to get these documents. Even if he or she will buy identification cards, getting other documents will be very difficult. So, having a unified identification system will help us to curb terrorism and insecurity in this country. Another thing is about robbers. It will be easy to get them because their finger prints are there in their personal bio data. With those few remarks, I support the Motion. Thank you."
