    "content": "world. This Government, instead of working out ways to create employment opportunities, has instead frozen employment. Let us not talk about freezing employment for the young people, I am now looking at the Public Service Commission. What is their role? What are they doing in terms of succession in our country because people are growing old and attaining retirement age? People are getting out of service through attrition, some are dying, resigning and so on and so forth. What is going to happen? Already, I know there is a gap in terms of generations that have moved, even change of retirement age caused some disruption. What plans have we put in place to ensure that we are training people to take up opportunities from those that will be getting out of the service? In a normal way, as you freeze employment for whatever reason that you have, do you have in mind that there is going to be some vacancy? People are going to get out of service for various reasons. It will be a very unreasonable Government – the Government that does not think, does not plan, does not look at tomorrow and does not know how the country is going to be run in terms of public service to do that. We have been praised in the past for having the best public service and well-trained workers who are committed to serve the country. But now if this is the way we are going, are we really going to sustain that? Are we going to sustain the service we have been said to have?"
