"content": "Hon. Speaker, to bring this matter close home, allow me to say that data protection also relates to the security of our country. There are many public bodies with personal information of Kenyans. The Registrar of Persons keeps a lot of data in form of finger prints and photos. Recently, we had the Huduma Namba registration, which I do not know where it has disappeared to. It was hyped. I was given a slip, but I am yet to see my Huduma Namba Card. All these are people who hold information of Kenyans. Unless we redefine the right to privacy in relation to such a broad range of information, we will not know who keeps our private data and information. We will not know who can access it and whether it is Government agencies and what they do with it. In this era of technology where most advanced countries like the United States of America (USA) are grappling with data protection, we also need to move in that direction if we are to safeguard and guarantee Kenyans their right of privacy."
