"content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for foreseeing that I will be brief. I also thank you for giving me this opportunity to contribute. I equally want to thank the Member who sponsored the Motion. It is timely. Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, as I support the Motion, there are some underlying issues that must be put in place. Whereas we want the young men and women trained at the NYS absorbed by the disciplined services, we must agree that there is a very big gap between disciplined forces training and what goes on at the NYS. Hence, we must go back to the basics and ask what the qualifications for joining the NYS are, and what they are required to do from the start so that as we go along we know that the young people can be absorbed into the disciplined services. For example, we need to know whether when someone leaves primary school he is qualified to join the NYS. If they are not, what are we supposed to do in terms of equipping them with skills to enable them qualify to join the NYS with enough education background?"
