    "content": "Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, it is unfortunate that my brother is just having some selective memories. I mentioned very clearly that I was here when Hon. Chrisantus Wamalwa was moving the Motion. I have specifically said that I respect him as a person who does strategic planning. He normally puts his case forward by presenting figures. What I was saying in my presentation is that he has not given us specific figures on how many applicants have applied and how long it takes for them to get their IDs. I want to be very specific because, through the Committee on Implementation, I have had interaction with the Government agencies that do this work. We had an opportunity to scrutinize the process of ID issuance when we were dealing with two earlier Motions. This is a security matter. The Government withdrew the centres of issuance of passports in Nakuru and other places because of security reasons. I totally agree that people come from different places to acquire identification documents. It is unfortunate that Hon. Chrisantus Wamalwa has brought this Motion. I think what he ought to have pushed for is on how best we can improve the system from application to the time you receive your ID. I do not think this Motion will see the light of day because of the implementation aspect. At the same time, I urge this House to insist on improving the systems from application to issuance."
