    "content": "informal sector and he is called Muteti. He really gave a very good presentation on what really affects the youth of this country. It is good if we can borrow from that angle. As we talk of mobilizing resources as a function, I would wish to see the Ministry really handling the issue of what makes youth not really access credit. Mostly, it is because of lack of collateral that can be used as security. When it comes to land ownership, the youth are also disadvantaged. It is good for us to look into that. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, according to Paragraph âHâ, it says the function of this council is to inspire and promote the spirit of unity, patriotism, volunteerism and service among the youth. This has to do with leadership. The leadership of this country must lead by example. They must be the role models for the youth of this country through the decions they make and the influence they command because of their offices. They should really inspire the youth to have that unity and patriotism. The appointments they make really matter a lot in terms of unity and patriotism among the youth. One of the factors that is really affecting the youth is unemployment. You will find youth with qualified papers, but we have always been disappointing them on two grounds. One, is that they must attain a certain age for them to apply for a job opportunity. They will be told that for them to apply for a certain job, they should be 45 years and below and yet, a young man or lady has just finished the university at the age of 25 years and he needs the job and has the papers. He is told that he has to be 40 years or 45 years in order to get that job. Even in cases where they have attained the required age, they are asked to have 10 years experience. That is really disappointing to the youth of this country. We should move away from that. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, a lot has been said about the appointment. I want to go to Clause 5 which talks about the composition of the council. I want to agree with my colleague that we should give youth ownership of this process for it to work very well and have acceptance. The Minister should appoint not more than six persons. Even if we have to move that number to eight, we should give the youth a slot to elect, if not all the six, at least 60 per cent of them should come from the youth. I would also like to comment on the issue of the age of those who will be appointed. It is suggested that the chairman will be appointed by the Minister. The Permanent Secretary â finance, the Attorney-General--- All those will not be within the youth bracket. The only slot left is slot âEâ whereby the Minister will appoint not more than six persons of which others have proposed that the figure should go to eight. Even if it goes to eight that is not a problem. Let us have them coming from the youth associations in the regions so that we also put the age limit that they should bring people who are within that age bracket. This will ensure that they know what really affects them."
