"content": " Yes, thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I would like to add my voice to the matter raised by Hon. Cynthia Muge, which is extremely important. The greatest concern is our children, young people out there, who are suffering in the Middle East. I would encourage the Committee to urge the Ministry of Labour to become more involved, particularly with private agencies as they appear to be the root cause of the problem. The recruitment agencies must be regulated by the government. This is something that the Committee must investigate and seek ways of monitoring those who leave the country, evaluate the destinations they go to, and ensure that the country benefits from them not only through remittances but also through some form of taxation. Although taxation is a term many seem to dislike these days. I believe we are producing more graduates than we can absorb locally. In my view, jobs majuu represent a great initiative by the president, and we must laud the government for it. Thank you."
