"content": "Let me explain. Many of our young people in this country do not have opportunity to start school at the same time, even in your village. By the time they are finishing school many of them are either 26 or 27 years and are looking for a job. We have trained teachers who are unemployed and they are 36 years old. Do we want to create an authority where a 36 year old goes to that Authority in Seme and he is told: “You are too old, go away”? We cannot do that. That will be discriminatory because there are many young people even below the age of 41 who have not been able to get employment in this country. So, what we are saying is that even as we provide for any Kenyan who is seeking a job--- If you read the entire Bill there is a lot of affirmative action for the youth. There are internship, registration, training and counselling opportunities. There needs to be affirmative action for the young people in this database according to Article 55. You cannot create an authority funded by taxpayers and say that if somebody comes The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."
