    "content": "Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for giving me the opportunity to contribute to the issue on harmonising issuance of identification documents. This is very important because it will lessen the cost of doing business and acquiring identity cards. In order for one to get an identity card today, one needs to go to various centres. In addition to paying the official fee, one needs to pay individuals in order for the process to take place. Once the proposed system is put in place, corruption fee plus the regular official fee will be lessened. We have to consider places like Turkana, Kitui and Baringo counties, where one has to cover very long distances. Given the fact that there are no roads in those areas, it becomes extremely expensive for an individual seeking these documents. Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I do not want to belabour the point as most of what I am saying has been said, but it will be wonderful for us to have one identity card that contains all our bio-data. For example, if you go to a bank and they need your birth certificate or your national identity card, they will be able to access all the information from one document. It will be good for individuals and institutions because it will make things easier for everybody. With those remarks, I beg to support."
