    "content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, pursuant to Standing Order No.45 (2) (b), I wish to seek a Statement from the Chairperson of the Standing Committee on National Security and Foreign Relations regarding the status of registration and issuance of national identity cards. In the Statement, the Chairperson should address the following specific issues:- (1) What measures the national Government is taking to decentralize the processing and issuance of identity cards to counties, considering that delay in issuance of the document locks out the applicants who are mainly women and youth from economic opportunities? (2) Could the Chairperson provide a per county break down of all the applications received, processed and issued between 1st July, 2014 and 30th June, 2015 and indicate the number of applications rejected per county? (3) What were the budgetary allocations for registration and issuance of national identity cards in the 2014/2015 and 2015/2016 financial years, and whether he could provide the per county breakdown of the disbursements? (4) What were the targets for national identity registration in the 2014/2015 and 2015/2016 financial years and whether he could provide per county breakdown? (5) Could the Chairperson provide per county breakdown of uncollected identity cards and explain what strategies are being employed to ensure that the documents are collected or delivered to the owners? (6) Could the Chairperson also update the Senate on the current status of the ongoing digital identity project?"
