"content": "Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for giving me this opportunity. You are aware that marriage mostly affects women and families. It is a very important aspect in life. I want to support the Motion by saying that the procedure of getting marriage certificates should not only be cheap, but should also be a bit faster so that you can easily apply for a certificate and get it immediately rather than moving across two counties to get it. As we talk about devolution, these are some of the things that should be devolved. The process of getting a marriage certificate, a birth certificate, an identification card and other important documents should be devolved to the village level. It should not even be handled at the sub-county level, but at the village level. We should also look into ways of digitizing the process so that you can apply for these documents from the Huduma Centre. I do not know why we should go to a Registrar of Marriages to get a certificate. We should make sure that people can get it from the Huduma Centres. One should apply for it and pick it later. Kenyans have suffered in the processes of getting these documents. They pay fare to and fro certain offices several times."
