    "content": " Let me put it this way; this Motion is good. The only little thing that is a problem with it is the mechanism of doing things for the time being. When we go to the third generation IDs what will happen is this: We will capture your data where you are, your photograph, name and whatever else, and then your form will be put in computer. It will be transferred electronically to the headquarters. The ID will be produced simultaneously. In fact, just because of transporting it back to you it might take some time. However, between the time you are registered and the time your ID is produced, it may not be 24 hours. So we are going to revolutionize the issuance of IDs. It will not be a problem anymore. Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, later when we get a little more money and we put systems in place in every district, we will be able to print your ID at the district. This is because we will be able to check the information at the headquarters. It will come back within seconds and tell us that you have not registered before, and so you can be registered. I have seen this happen in many places where we have gone for benchmarking and so on. So, it can be done. I do not want to limit the vision that this Motion has, because it is achievable. It can be done. It is just a matter of equipping our headquarters and equipping our districts. The only thing that I do not think it says, and I do not want it to be imported, is that each county can register its own people in exclusion. We must check at a central data base whether you are a Kenyan or not, whether you have registered before, whether you have lied before or whether you have been a refugee before. So those things can be checked at the headquarters. However, producing an ID card will be done even at the district headquarters. Thank you."
