    "content": "Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker for allowing me to contribute to this Motion on firearms registration system by Hon. Victor Munyaka. From the outset, I support this Motion that urges the Government to fit all licensed guns held by individuals and disciplined forces with electronic tracking devices and ensure that there is proper and comprehensive registration of all firearms in the country, in order to curb insecurity. Insecurity has been a major issue in this country. We thank the Jubilee Government, which has put a lot of effort in ensuring that Kenyans are safe. The police are doing a good job. Of late even our colleagues in the opposition are quiet now because there is good security in the country. That is where we want to go; every Kenyan should be secure and feel that they can carry out their functions without fear that there is insecurity in the country. That is where this country is going. A system which will fit electronic tracking systems in all the guns will go a long way in improving the security. All the firearms at the time of being licensed after purchase or issue by the police should be fitted with a tracking system which gives real time updates on where that gun was at the very time when it was fired or where it is kept. This will ensure that people are able to track all the firearms. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."
