Temporary Deputy Speaker, the fact that the requirements of 70 per cent of our population are so many cannot be over-emphasised. If we make the National Youth Council (NYC) operational, the Government will focus on the youth agenda. At the same time, the youth of this country will have a central organ through which their issues can be properly articulated. We have seen our youth experiencing mundane problems like attachments while in college; something which should not be happening. The youth should be able to get attachment within the Government and in private companies without a lot of stress."}
