    "content": "at the lowest level can have an opportunity to be tested there. This will help us reduce the cost of transport as well as the cost of obtaining those papers. If this one can be done at the constituency level, it will motivate many of our youth out there. In the construction industry, we also have a requirement for certification by the National Construction Authority (NCA), which I want us to incorporate in this Bill to enable our youth get certificates at the lowest level possible. When we try to give tenders to the youth at the NG-CDF level, we find that majority of them do not qualify because they lack some papers. If most of those papers can be easily available at the lowest level possible, our youth will be empowered. It will give them an opportunity to access some funding which will make them self-reliant as opposed to the current situation where you are forced to go to either Kisumu or come to Nairobi to look for papers. Majority of our youth out there cannot get to major towns to acquire those papers. With those few remarks, I support and ask Hon. Kanyi to revise this Motion to cover the lowest level possible. Thank you."
