We are giving our children computers. I do not know what is difficult in the Government establishing a central bureau, from which one’s bio-data can be accessed upon logging-in one’s personal identification number. There should be no need of telling one to produce a certificate of good conduct from the CID, or an identity card or a birth certificate. This matter is very close to my heart because I have witnessed many people have difficulties when they apply for birth certificates and identity cards. We would want this to become a thing of the past. It is a violation of our children’s human rights that we have to subject them to such pain when they want to register for national examinations. This should not the case in a digital government. We should start by amending the Registration of Persons Act and provide for the proposals contained in this Motion. With those remarks, I beg to support."}
