"content": "I hope the passage of this Bill will enable our youths to find it necessary to participate in employment opportunity seeking initiatives because there will be no costs associated with the process. We have talked to a number of youths and whenever they make an application, they fail to do subsequent applications considering the cost they incur with only one application. We are saying that with this Bill, the youth will no longer be burdened with the costs and they should now find it necessary to participate in as many opportunities as possible that come so as to acquire the jobs. We hope that institutions that are involved in the processing of compliance and clearance certificates do not take this as a way of earning money. Therefore, they should not have any problem in postponing this process until the youth is fully confirmed to have been given a job. It is also our hope that employers will continue to create more jobs under the Big Four Agenda. The Government should grow more industries to employ our youth and also encourage the informal sector to absorb as many youths as possible. Both the formal and informal sectors can then absorb many of our youths without much hindrances that have been caused by document processing so as to reduce the number of unemployed youths out there. With those few remarks, I beg to second and hope that once this Bill is passed, information will be disseminated widely for our youths to know that they will no longer be required to process these documents as they were obligated before. I second. Thank you."
