"content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I have had an occasion to discuss with the Minister about certain thoughts that I have. For example, it is my opinion that the current groupings of youths, so that they can benefit from the Fund has to be improved. New ideas must be injected into it. I hope the Minister will consider in effect, actually spending money to hire a consultant who will identify the inclinations and vocations that the youth hold. By so doing, the youth of this country will be grouped according to their vocations and not because the Youth Officer in a given constituency wants certain youth to form a group. Let us identify those who are interested in football, so that we can invest in football throughout the country. Let us identify those who are interested in agriculture and polytechnics; we assume that all the youth are interested in them. Let them identify those who will fit according to their inclinations, and so on and so forth. The marathon runners are among these youth. We need to identify them so that as we invest in sports, we are being specific and not generalising the ambitions o f the youth. So, I suggest that this exercise is carried out. The youths should be grouped and investments made accordingly. Others may want to be trained as veterinarians. Let us not just get youth"
