Temporary Deputy Chairman, I beg to move:- THAT, Clause 31 of the Bill be amended- (a) in sub-clause (2) by deleting the word “the youth” and substituting therefor the word“Kenyans” (b) deleting the words “county entity,” appearing after the words “national entity” (c) in sub-clause (2) by deleting the word “the youth” and substituting therefor the word “Kenyans”.

• 7 Oct 2015 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I appreciate the concern raised by Hon. T.J. Kajwang’. In as much as this Bill in the description speaks about “Kenyan” and maybe the word “citizen” is missing, the Constitution of Kenya clearly defines who a Kenyan citizen is in Article 14.

• 7 Oct 2015 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, this amendment being there, in as much as I should have dropped it, it is already in the Order Paper. If I drop this amendment, we cannot have a further amendment on the “Kenyan citizen”. So, for us to provide for the “Kenyan citizen”, I have to move this, so that there is a further amendment. Otherwise, there will be no further amendment on Clause 2. view
• 7 Oct 2015 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, if I were Hon. Kajwang’, and this is by way of just letting him know, the word “job seeker” runs through even in areas where we have not mentioned Kenyans, I would leave the word “job seeker” and introduce an amendment to introduce the word “Kenyan” after the definition of the word “youth” to mean a “Kenyan citizen as provided for in the Constitution of Kenya”. So, I am introducing a new definition. view
• 7 Oct 2015 in National Assembly: I am saying after the description of the word “youth” which is the last one. So, to introduce the description of the word “Kenyan”--- view
