• 16 Oct 2013 in National Assembly: I find it very interesting that some people have made the processing of birth certificates like milking a cow. If one wants a birth certificate, he has to pay something small. That is the case and yet, the person who might be applying for that birth certificate The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly.

• 16 Oct 2013 in National Assembly: might be in dire need of the document probably to acquire a passport. The delay in the issuance of that document makes the person delay in acquiring the traveling document.

• 16 Oct 2013 in National Assembly: I also want to say that students are unable to register for their exams without producing birth certificates. In my constituency, the birth certificates are collected by the school heads. Documents are bond together and then taken to the registration office for the issuance of birth certificate.

• 9 Jul 2013 in National Assembly: Thank you hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I rise to support this Motion by my friend, hon. David Kangongo. It is a very timely Motion.

I support this Motion because the company that distributes ... view
