    "content": "Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I rise to support this Motion. Countries that have embraced technology and are using that technology to create competitive advantage have moved forward. We must remember that there was a time Kenya was listed as one of the most unfriendly places to start business. That is because of the documentation and procedures that were required. However, when we reduced that and even embraced the Simba System of clearing things at the Port of Mombasa and reduced the number of documents one needs, we started improving. By having a unified data system with one document--- Hon. Nyamai, having brought this Motion, I would urge that even the PIN for tax collection should also be included in this document. This will go a long way in bringing accountability to this country. Once the bio-data is captured, you will find that in the border communities like Busia, where it takes somebody a whole life time to get identification that time is going to be shortened. You will find that there is a woman who is married and her husband and children have IDs and yet, she does not have one because of a certain documentation that is required. In Scandinavian countries, for car registration, once you have the identification of your car and you are selling that car, you can keep your number plates. You do not need to acquire another one. That way, it becomes very easy to know whose number plate that is. We can help through that technology to even track terrorists. Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker (Hon. Ms. Mbalu): Hon. Charles Nyamai, you now have your two minutes to reply."
