By Our Correspondent
Senator Gloria Orwoba has sought for a statement from the Senate Standing Committee on National Security, Defence and Foreign Relations regarding the need to protect the identity of Kenyans visiting public buildings and business premises.
In her request, she wants the committee to justify why many businesses do not protect the identity of members of the public when they require security guards to collect and retain original identification documents at the entrance of buildings they visit rather than noting the names and ID numbers and returning the documents.
Further, she want the committee in its response to outline the measures being taken by the Ministry of Interior and Coordination of National Government to prevent identity theft.
In addition, the legislator wants the committee to state plans by the Ministry of Interior and Coordination of National Government to develop an Integrated Population Registration System (IPRS) that can grant companies access to verify the authenticity of an ID number rather than insisting on use of the physical identify cards.
