New strategy to modernize civil affairs services

SANA'A, Dec. 19 (Saba) - Head of the Authority of Civil Affairs and

Civil Record (ACACR) Rashid Jarhum said that the authority has

drafted a strategy to modernize the civil affairs and record

services up to 2015.



The move comes after specialized field teams surveyed

comprehensively the civil record and found out that turnout was not

sufficient as people come to the authority in times of need, Jarhum

said.



The strategy would come into affect in 2015 once we have completed

the basic population data at the governorate and country levels.



Under the strategy we will work to issue intelligent ID cards which

will contain electronic cards to restore information related to

people's civil and electoral data.
