    "content": "The ministries in charge of water, roads, and building or construction are the ones that will create those bottlenecks that will affect this effort. I hope my Chairman is listening. We need to address that matter otherwise, a very good law like this can end up not getting implemented. The youths are very enthusiastic that we are going to pass this Bill. So, what happens? They will go to get those contracts. They will be told: “Go to the Ministry of Environment, Water and Natural Resources; go to the Kenya Revenue Authority (KRA); bring this and that” and they will be disillusioned. Therefore, we are asking them that, as we are passing this amendment Bill, they should be watching and listening. I am sure they are doing so. We should provide for that 30 per cent affirmative action to the youth so that when they go there, they are not going to encounter bottlenecks. That way, they are going to benefit from the laws that we are enacting."
