    "content": "Once somebody goes for attachment, they have to be paid. That does not happen in this country. I have been looking at this policy paper and I do not see anywhere where the CS proposes to introduce or hope to find a solution or a way of making sure that our young men who have graduated or are in the process and working like everybody else are paid. If you look at the hotel industry, when you sit to be served, you will be served by a college or university student who does the same job as somebody who has been employed and is earning in that hotel and yet, that student does not earn a salary. That university student or the one on attachment wakes up at weird hours like 6.00 a.m. or 5.00 a.m. in the morning. They go to work like everybody else but all they get is a certificate stating that they did an attachment at the end of it all. That is not right. As Members of Parliament, we should look at it and find solutions. We should come up with policies, Bills or laws that will enable whoever is on attachment and does a job like any other employee to be paid. Even if it is not the full amount, they need to be paid half The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly.
