    "content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, one of the reasons why the YEDF was initiated was to alleviate unemployment amongst the youth. The purpose of giving them money was to enable them engage in self-employment. As it has been said by the previous speaker, Kshs50,000 per group is too small. Again, the process of approving this money for the youth takes so long; about a year. There is so much bureaucracy. Could the Minister improve on the process of approval so that the cheques are signed at the district level rather than at the Ministry's headquarters? This would hasten the process of disbursement. Also, could the Minister think of increasing the amount of money to, perhaps, four times what is given currently? This is because Kshs50,000 cannot initiate any tangible enterprise that can create employment. I believe Kshs200,000 would be a reasonable amount."
