"content": "Hon. Speaker, I am surprised by the kind of response that has presented to the Chair by the Cabinet Secretary. What came out clearly from this response is the old type of rhetoric of saying that the Government will provide services when funds become available. The only commitment made towards the end of the response is that the services sought will be availed when the issue of personnel is conclusively addressed. However, there is no element of time-frame. Secondly, it is not true that Mandera Central is new. The district is over seven years old. Thirdly, the fact that services are not being provided in other sub-counties is not an answer to my question. I did not ask how many counties are not being given the same services. I asked specifically about Mandera Central. Therefore, the fact that other areas are not being given the services is not a sufficient answer to my question. Hon. Speaker, it is surprising to observe that the Government has not provided enough services to its citizens. 107 out of 289 sub-counties, according to this response, is less than a half of the number of civil registries in the sub-counties. Is this, therefore, an indication that the Government is not doing its work of registering its citizens?"
