Fwd: Kenya Shifts To Smart Driving Licences - Kenyan Wallstreet

Listers, Whereas this is a bold move by NTSA towards digitization, i feel we are missing a bigger opportunity of digitizing our National ID cards and integrate the Driving Licence, Educational Qualification, Health records, KRA tax records and even Election and Travel documentation into one seamless document. I note that the new design is a chip and PIN that is a repository of Biometric information that is the common denominator in most documents. There is need for intra-government collaboration to ride on the crest of emerging technologies and deploy services to citizens with forward looking solutions and efficiencies. http://kenyanwallstreet.com/kenya-shifts-smart-driving-licences *Timothy Oriedo * *Executive Coach and Data Scientist* *Strathmore Business School* *timothy.oriedo@predictiveanalytics.co.ke <timothy.oriedo@predictiveanalytics.co.ke>*

Hi Coach, Thank you for the piece. I have seen pictures of the smart licence circulating on social media. It would be great to know more about this, for instance, how it actually works, the data privacy measures, what information will be available to traffic officers, how citizens can get their data corrected etc. Do you have access to this information? I agree with you about the smart licenses being developed in a silo but until we have a data protection framework in place, I will not be too eager about data sharing.

Umm...health? Education records? Not really the business of anyone but myself and the particular service provider. Social security, sure. Like Grace said, A sound data protection framework first. Having worked in some GoK sites, I can say that there is no uniform data protection strategy in place. On 12 July 2017 at 10:44, Grace Mutung'u via kictanet < kictanet@lists.kictanet.or.ke> wrote:

Good afternoon, Was reading about it (http://www.businessdailyafrica.com/news/Uhuru-launch-digital-driving-licence...) and wondered if the underlying laws have been updated e.g. traffic offenses being charged on points instead of fines. I was also wondering about the underlying business case. Is it to stop corruption by traffic police? Weed out fake driving licenses?

Thank you Martin. Very informative piece that brings about many questions especially when third parties will have access to data, the points system.... It would be really useful to get access to the NTSA document that explains the whole project. Do you have it?

Thank you Timothy, We definitely would do coffee, I'll give you a call. Grace, no I don't have it, I shall find out if the document is ready and available for scrutiny. Please note that I got this interview before they launch the product which will be later this month.
