    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I wish to request for a statement regarding the ongoing recruitment of personnel for 2019 Kenya Population and Housing Census exercise. Pursuant to Standing Order No. 44(2)(c), I wish to request for a statement from the Chairperson of the Departmental Committee on Finance and National Planning regarding the ongoing recruitment of personnel for 2019 Kenya Population and Housing Census exercise. The Treasury and National Planning, through the Kenya National Bureau of Statistics (KNBC), has called for applications countrywide for the positions of supervisors and enumerators for the upcoming Kenya Population and Housing Census. It is now Kenyans with jobs who are pushing to apply for those vacancies to the disadvantage of a large population of unemployed youths who possess requisite qualifications. It is, therefore, against this background that I seek a statement from the Chairperson of the Departmental Committee on Finance and National Planning on the measures that have been put in place to ensure qualified unemployed youths are prioritised to fill those vacancies, rather than Kenyans already in employment. Thank you, Hon. Speaker."
