    "content": " Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, as a small- scale tea farmer and as a member of a number of professions, it is high time we did anything which can promote the interest of the youth. I support my learned friend Hon. Millie Odhiambo on that side and Hon. John Mwirigi. As for my colleague, Hon. Mose, on the other side said, there is a clause in the Law Society of Kenya Act which says that for one to be even a judge, he must have practised for a certain period. So, five years is the minimum period required; for a farmer or anybody who wants to be appointed as a director, five years’ experience is quite a lengthy period. That is an experienced person. We should encourage the youth to come up and not hide because they are lacking experience. Who cannot be called an experienced person after being in a position for five years? If three years are enough, what about five years? This is quite a lengthy period. So, we should reduce it to five years. It should not be 10 years."
