As I was talking about skills matching, if you look at Sessional Paper--- I am glad that the Chairman is here; I want him to understand that the Bill is actually drawn from policy. Many times we bring Bills here that do not have a linkage with the policy of the Government. If you look at Sessional Paper No.4 on Employment Policy and Strategy for Kenya, it says that in Kenya there exists limited linkages and collaboration between education, training institutions and industry. This is reflected in the development and implementation of education and training curricula, which is mostly done without effective consultation and collaboration with relevant stakeholders. Kenyan tertiary institutions have, for example, continued to develop training programmes which are supply driven rather than demand driven. This Employment Authority will serve to address that issue. Brazil is an example that has a similar authority that has focused on informal vocational skills training through public-private alliances. It has increased the uptake in the Brazilian economy."
