The Central Electoral Board (JCE) has embarked on its biometric registration program, which will record every citizen's photo, signature and fingerprints. This information will be entered into a database and will then be incorporated into birth certificates and 'cedula' identity cards. The program aims to eliminate identity fraud in the DR. The program is expected to last nine months and will collect information from more than six million documented people nationwide. The JCE is also working on a program to register previously unregistered citizens.
