    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, in as far as I know, that policy is still in place. The workers that come to the country are skilled workers. They are technicians who come to work, for example, in road construction. Those are the ones who are entitled to work permits and not cooks, hair dressers or dhobis . Those are trades that are easily available locally. The point I am trying to make here is that the cost of labour is much higher and that is what is making us less competitive in the international market. We must enhance skill training. Secondly, we must look at our cost of labour so that we can be a more attractive investment destination. Hon. Nyamweya was concerned about interdictions. I want him to understand this: We have not said that somebody will not be asked to step aside. All I am saying is that there must be substantial material. Somebody should not wake up in the morning and hold a Press conference and says that hon. Nyamweya was involved in “A”, “B”, “C” and “D” corruption and, therefore, he should step aside. If you allow that to happen, tomorrow there will be so many other people standing up and saying that so and so should step aside. Finally, they will want all Members to step aside because there have been allegations that they have been taking money so as to ask Questions in Parliament. How far can we extend that? There has to be sufficient material that will warrant"
