"content": "Madam Temporary Deputy Chairlady, what I would like to encourage--- I was actually trying to look for another article in the Constitution other than Article 55 that actually talks about giving affirmative action to the youth. However, my only challenge is that the percentage that has been quoted is too high. This is especially because already there are other certain percentages that have been allocated to different sections. The only thing I am worried about is that we give a lot of lip-service to the youth. When it comes to issues of gender and persons with disability, we mainstream them. But when it comes to issues of the youth, even though the Constitution is very clear, we do not always mainstream. So, I would want to encourage what the Minister is suggesting that he reduces the percentage, but not to remove it all together."
