Section 29: The Security Amendment Bill 2014
Section 29: The Security Amendment Bill 2014 section
29 sought to amend section 8 of chapter 107 of the laws of Kenya known as Registration
of Persons Act.
This is what section 29 of the Security
Amendment Bill 2014 looked like
“Section 8 of the Registration of
Persons Act is amended by inserting the following subsection immediately after
—
(1A) The Director may establish identification
committees or appoint persons as identification agents to assist in the authentication
of information furnished by a parent or guardian.”
This is what section 8 of the Registration
of Persons Act says;
Power to demand proof of
information
“A registration officer may
require any person who has given any information in pursuance of this Act or rules
made thereunder to furnish such documentary or other evidence of the truth of
that information as it is within the power of that person to furnish.”
After the amendment section 8 of Cap 107
(Registration of Persons Act) of the laws of Kenya should read:-
“A registration officer may
require any person who has given any information
in
pursuance of this Act or rules made thereunder to furnish such documentary
or
other evidence of the truth of that information as it is within the power of
that
person
to furnish
a)
The Director
may establish identification committees or appoint persons as identification
agents to assist in the authentication of information furnished by a parent or
guardian”
