    "content": "The chiefs and assistant chiefs have responsibilities of registering deaths and births in the community. I do not see any reason whatsoever why we cannot allow the same personnel to handle the same. As we are looking into ways of reducing costs, there is no need to engage a registrar in the counties or sub counties to increase wage bill in this country. The district or the sub county commissioners can handle the same with no cost. The best guideline in my view is to have the same process as it was in the beginning. Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, very many children suffer out there in an event that one parent is lost. Members of other families tend to appear and claim that they are the actual beneficiaries of the property that one of the family members left. In my view, marriage is a proof of ownership. We should allow the process to be very easy for anyone who wants to engage in marriage. Have it as it was before rather than having a situation where one has to travel to Nairobi or move to the former provincial headquarters. The issue of making payments; it should be free. I do not think anyone pays to look for a girlfriend or a wife. If it is free, then the process of acquiring a wife should be free. Why should you be penalised? I support the Motion. Thank you."
