    "content": " Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, on the issue of transformers, we would like to request the Ministry of Energy to, at July 30, 2008 PARLIAMENTARY DEBATES 2245 least, relocate those transformers to the nearest homes. They should, at least, give incentives to those homes by giving them free power connections so that they can take care of those transformers. That why, they will not be stolen each and every day and we will avoid power blackouts. They should also check the rates that they are charging. That is because the youth of this country will not be able to venture into business at all! Even if the Youth Development Enterprise Fund gives them money, the young men and women of this country will not be able to sustain their businesses with the high cost of energy. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, we are also pleading with the Ministry even in terms of connections. Let them have an affirmative action on the youth so that, if you are less than 25 or 30 years, you should be connected at half price to enable you to compete with the \"haves\"! Otherwise, the youth of this country must be taken care of! We are asking the Ministry of Energy to take action on those issues. With those few remarks, I beg to support."
