Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, this is one of the times when we say in law that laws are made as hand maidens of justice and not harsh maintainers of justice.

Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, if we had Clause 3(a), I support it wholly plus the further amendment moved by hon. Sakaja.

Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, with regard to the current numbering, that is, 10, before we can summarily deal with Clause 3(b)(10) as has been proposed by the Chairman that every procuring entity shall ensure that all money is paid out into accounts, I think this assumes a lot. It assumes that we have passed a very important stage. I do not want to pre-empt debate, but what is proposed at Clause 2 has a lot to do with what is now in Clause 3(b)(10).

As I thank this House for doing this, I want to request the county governments and the national Government to consider that since the youths may not have capital, where possible, let them try to ensure that they have access to initial money to enable them to do this. I really want to thank hon. Sakaja, my Chairman in KYPA for bringing this. I hope the youth will not let Parliament down.
