16 Nov 2010 in National Assembly:
Mr. Speaker, Sir, I would like to raise a matter of procedural nature before I can answer this Question. First, it is the same Question that I answered on 28th October, 2010. I remember bringing before this House volumes of names from Kwale, Mombasa, Kilifi, Taita and Tana River. At that time, my brother did---

Mr. Speaker, Sir, as a matter of fact, it is the responsibility of the citizen of Kenya who applied for registration to collect his identity card when it is ready. As a matter of fact, it is very painful that we spend a lot of time to register Kenyan citizens and keep some of those identity cards for more than a year before their owners come for them. Last year just before the referendum, we did something extra-ordinary. We asked the District Commissioners to ask the District Officers and the chiefs about the owners of some identity cards.

Mr. Speaker, Sir, of course, I said that when the time comes; that is when we have the devolved governments, they will not have a role or if they do, it will not be in the manner in which it is currently established.

I request the Minister to assist me in this regard because it is not his responsibility to be distributing identity cards. However, because ...

16 Nov 2010 in National Assembly:
Mr. Speaker, Sir, the consultations were a bit lould; so, I did not quite get the gist of the question. But it is that there are certain applicants whose applications are rejected, that is normal. I am not saying that it should happen, but it happens because maybe the form was not properly filled, maybe the person who was taking the finger prints did not take it properly or maybe the person who was taking the photograph did not take it properly. For such reasons, we take them back so that the application is done properly one more time. We ...

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, this was definitely not my Question. I was not asked to verify this. If the Chair directs that we verify whether Ms. Adhiambo bears that ID, we will in minutes and bring you the results.

(b) Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I am not aware that in Lamu District most applications approved by the District Committee are rejected at the headquarters in Nairobi. But I am aware that those applications which do not meet certain standards are rejected and returned to the office of origin. There were 12 rejected cases during that period.
