The National Identification Authority has started a pilot mass registration exercise to among others test the customisation of their software and also the forms designed for the data collection.
The pilot test according to a statement from the Authority will take place in ?two (2) Communities in the Greater Accra Region namely Abokobi and Sege between 26th July and 4th August, 2007.?
This, the Authority says is in conformity with international best practice and with special reference to Article 2 of Act 707.
?In this pilot Test, the National Identification Authority will simulate some registration difficulties in order to test the levels of responses by both the Registration and Technical Support Teams as well as the reaction of the applicants in the queue.?
The Authority has meanwhile thrown an open invitation to interested individuals, Representatives of MDAs and Private Sector Organisations to visit the pilot sites to observe the process.
