• 27 Apr 2006 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I would like to assure the House that a Gazette Notice to that effect will be issued on Friday or next week. view
• 27 Apr 2006 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, we have, in fact, already dispatched to each registration station, at least 7,000 sets of registration forms. Some hon. Members have been asking us similar questions and we have assured them that the materials are available at registration centres. In the event that the materials are not available at any given registration centre, it should be brought to our notice so that we can dispatch the materials. view
• 27 Apr 2006 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, it is obvious that there is a budget for each Ministry. As far as we are concerned, some money had been sent to the various stations to enable the officers to do their work. However, we know that most hon. Members have demanded that there should be mobile teams of registration officers. If we are given enough money in the next Budget, mobile teams of registration officers will be constituted. view

Those who enacted this law knew that our country is wide. However, we cannot go against the law. For those who come from remote areas, they should know that chiefs and assistant chiefs are registration officers under the Registration of Persons Act. The officers can collect the application forms, fill them and take them to a magistrate for signing. view
• 27 Apr 2006 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, this is not a selective application of the law against women because even men change their particulars when they change their faith, for example, from a Christian to a Muslim. They change their original names. There is no discrepancy as far as we are concerned. view
• 27 Apr 2006 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, once an identity card is lost, there are people who apply for a copy of it. The endorsement of that copy costs Kshs100. Once an identity card is lost and a person has made the necessary application, we charge Kshs100 for this and the new identity card bears the same serial number as the old one.
