"content": "In Government offices that deal with payments, there are officials who sit on people’s files because they want to be bribed before the files can resurface. Therefore, public registries should be computerised to ensure that information is accessed at the touch of a few buttons, so that matters can be expedited without wasting people’s time. That way, everybody will be able to concentrate on what they are supposed to do. Issues of compromise and penalties accruing because of delays will be minimised. The systems will be more efficient and the Government will run faster. Even the international disputes that we have had in some of the contracts that we now have with Chinese, British and Japanese companies will be easier to resolve. With regard to the issue that we are dealing with in the international courts, we shall have records in place and it will be easier to get back to them. If the records had been there, they would have been relayed showing how the matters we are dealing with, of international nature, came up. We need a lot of reforms in the sector for efficiency. With those remarks, I support the Bill."
