We hope that since the money was not captured in the Budget that was read here, they will include it in the Supplementary Estimates. For example, some money has been moved from some Ministries and given to teachers. That is equally important, as another hon. Member has said. If you solve the issues affecting the youth, you will solve 70 per cent of the problems of this country. There is no point of allocating Kshs26 billion to the youth and adding more money if they have no say on how that money will be used. That is why you see Government projects for the youth failing time and again because young people are not consulted. They do not have a say on how the money is used. So, when you establish a white elephant project, it fails. So, the National Youth Council is there to make sure that young people get involved from the grassroots up to the national level."
