If it is about laws, we have done enough laws. If it is about policy, there is enough of paperwork that has filled various rooms in the Cabinet on what you need to do to encourage entrepreneurship and startups to ensure that they succeed. The goodwill to implement, unfortunately, is not something that can be legislated. It is on that point that I agree partly with Sen.

Madam Deputy Speaker, this Bill has fairly good proposals. However, there are things which, I think, are slightly different from what exists in various other youth"
