    "content": "Actually, our youth are frustrated after they leave the NYS as are our graduates from the universities. Likewise, they leave the universities and they have nowhere to go. This is a good Motion to consider the issues of the youth. In addition to being absorbed into the disciplined forces, I suggest that the Government can also ensure that the NYS graduates are absorbed elsewhere because NYS may not have all the skills required in the disciplined forces. My suggestion is that the Government should come up with a policy to recruit all the graduates from the NYS. This policy could include all Government parastatals and offices so that there is a contract between NYS and Government offices. I am saying this because I remember my former employer required drivers and we wanted to have a contract with the NYS to provide them, but they said they do not have such arrangements. That is why I suggest that a Government policy should be in place to have contracts with Government agencies, especially on outsourced services. There could be a contract between the NYS and Government offices, especially for outsourced services, like receptionists where the physically challenged people can also be absorbed. We could also have contracts with Government offices where drivers could be got from the NYS plus security guards and catering and cleaning services. In doing so, we will absorb so many of the NYS recruits. My other suggestion is that before the recruitment is done – I suggest this should also go to the universities – research should be done whereby they know the number of receptionists, drivers and security guards they will recruit and how many would be required to do the dams and roads. After the recruitment, they would just be absorbed directly and get the employment directly instead of being trained and then they have nowhere to go. Therefore, I actually support the Motion but with some amendments. Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker."
