    "content": "I support this Regulation even as I thank the people who voted nicely and ensured that this money was provided. When we provide this money for capacity building for our young people, we will ensure that we do not just give people money to solve their problems. The Jubilee Government believes that we must ensure that our young people have the right capacity for entrepreneurship. I am very glad that this has come back because the standards and curriculum content is set by the National Government so that it is uniform in the country. We must build those skills in our young people to make sure that they can be good entrepreneurs; they must know book-keeping and to cost the items that they produce in those businesses. I also want to link this Regulation and the entire Uwezo Fund to the amendment that I brought to the Procurement Act which will come for Second Reading tomorrow. On one hand, we are giving young people the opportunity to set up businesses and to work in those groups. But once they have set up the businesses, the amendment of the Procurement Act provides that the Government shall have to procure from the same young people. That is the best way to go and so, I support."
