    "content": "Services to be quite efficient in its processes just as we have noted in other departments including the Directorate of Immigration and Registration of Persons, where computerisation is now quite good. Systems can detect travelers in and out of this country, especially when they do not have travel documents as they come into our country. Alfred has a Master’s degree in Business Administration. That gives him a wide experience in dealing with systems and people. He will deal with the financial systems as an accounting officer, coordinate with other departments in the Ministry and deal with inter- ministerial meetings. Mr. Alfred will handle that quite well. We noted that he is coming into this department from an Executive Director’s position, which has given him a wide experience. He has been working with the Communications Commission of Kenya (CCK) as a senior manager where he, again, gained some experience in Government processes. For that reason, Alfred comes in as a person who has experience in both the Government and the private sector. That brings in the vital component of a public-private partnership which is a key component in development in the world today. We hope and expect that we are going to see changes in that department. We will see a lot of utilisation of the vast resources that are underutilised in this department and start seeing a department that is no longer relying on resources from the Government to cater for some of its needs. They should make use of the many acres of land that they have and the knowledge that some of the inmates possess. For that reason, we feel that this is a very capable person for this department. I hope he will bring this very vital component to this department. With this and the observations we made, I support."
