"content": "Madam Temporary Speaker, I want to further propose that this programme should be expanded, not only to be a national project, but to have branches in the counties. As we move into the future, starting with few other areas, we should have one in the coast, another in the north, central and one in western. We should expand this so that in some counties, we have the national youth training taking place for those youths who can take responsibility within the counties. These 20,000 people are very few for a nation. We should train them in the institutions that are available. They should then be deployed to secure and help within the county administration. In fact, when you think about this, if you have the NYS and you have a branch of them being trained alongside the Navy, then they can be of great assistance to man and observe our territorial waters and also ensure that fishermen are safe along the coast. They should also be sent to do lifesaving duties in those areas. We can think of many ways that we can deploy our young men and women within the movement of the NYS. That would be extremely useful to our society. Again, I want to congratulate Sen. Beatrice Elachi. Thank you, Senator, for thinking and caring for our youth. We hope that you can take the ideas that we are presenting in our debates so that you expand your amendments when it comes to the Committee of the Whole so that the law can take effect and have greater impact than you had expected to have with your own amendment."
