    "content": "who were selling and buying cows or goats admired the informal employment. So, I will take into consideration those very useful suggestions regarding mentorship. Also, with regard to the issue of the boy child, I appreciate that, maybe, we focus too much on the girl child and yet, we know that a society cannot develop healthily if one gender is not encouraged. So, I would like to assure this House that we will look at that issue of supporting both the boys and the girls of this country. I also want to add here that it is important for us, as leaders, to mind our language, so that we do not discourage the young people. We will look at all those suggestions and implement them. I assure hon. Members, while thanking them very sincerely, that we will consider their proposals quickly. This is because we know that more than three quarters of our population at the moment; that is before we get the results of the current census, is made up of young people. On the issue of 35 years, we already accept in the Ministry that the youth bracket should be between 15 years and 35 years because we want them to benefit from the Youth Enterprise Development Fund (YEDF). I would like to add that we are conscious that the YEDF money is not reaching the intended youth. I would like to assure hon. Members that we want to increase the proportion of the constituency component of the YEDF, so that hon. Members can support the young people within their constituencies because they know them. I urge them to take a more active role in identifying the youth that apply for the YEDF at the constituency level."
