    "content": "Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. Before I second, allow me to congratulate our Chairman, a very able man. He has worked tirelessly to ensure that this Report is brought before this House. Before we give recommendations on the adoption of this Report, let me give you a background of the tourism sector, especially with regard to Utalii College which I have known since my childhood days. It is an institution our kids looked forward to training in and get a good job thereafter. As I speak, most of our children have no desire to join the institution. Even if they do, there are no opportunities. If we implement the recommendations in this Report, we will give our children an opportunity to advance their skills. With the Members of the Committee, we realised that there are challenges in this institution that require a lot of soul searching to assist it to move forward. We made recommendations, which if implemented, we will have an institution that we will all cherish. As I second the Motion, there is need to know that there is a challenge in the tourism sector in this country. Implementation of this Report will give an opportunity to the sector to come back to the status it was in, in the 1990s. All of us were looking forward to train there, but it has gone down. I hope Members of this House will look at this Report and give a favourable recommendation, so that it can be implemented. People will then say we had a Parliament that cared about their wellbeing.
