"content": "compliant and the BBI Report is online and so, I believe quite a number of people will access and read it online. A lot of fraud and crimes are also happening online. Again, this affects the youth. So, we need to come up with legislation dealing with the youth, who are now 75 per cent of the country. The primary law is the law relating to the Youth Council. The elections are very competitive. It is like a lot of people who have participated in politics while they are young, whether in university or at the Youth Council, have found themselves to be very useful. A lot of them have been hired in Parliament as personal assistants to Members of Parliament. Other Government departments should utilise the youth talent now that we are ICT-compliant. You can see even the House is now ICT-compliant. We are going into a paperless regime because it is more efficient and more accurate. I beg to support this Bill. I am looking forward to the Committee of the whole House, God willing, so that we can make amendments and make this law better. I thank Hon. Gideon Keter for being youthful and for taking proactive action to make sure that the youth in this country are served better. That is why we should have more youth in the House. I thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker."
