    "content": "Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I also rise to support this Motion. We are supporting this Motion because of the challenges that we experience in our constituencies. For example, as a person living in Malava, I have about 5,000 applicants who applied for IDs in 2014 and they have not received them up to now. I urge that apart from these persons registering only as voters, they can also use the same to access other services, for example, opening bank accounts and accessing Uwezo Fund money. These delays inconvenience most of our voters and especially our constituents who fall in the youth bracket. To control this, I urge the Mover of this Motion to also add that when it comes to these waiting cards, we can have a timespan that will condition the Registrar of Persons to ensure that the IDs are received within a particular period. For example, we can say that a waiting card can be valid for four months, after which, this person must have received an ID failure to which action is taken against the Registrar’s Office. Otherwise, without wasting much time, I support the Motion strongly. You will realise that most of the persons who are suffering are from particular regions where most of our people have applied for these cards but they have not received them after a whole year. I rise to support the Motion."
