On the issue of the youth, the BBI talks about prompt payment of money owed to the youth, within 60 days. There are a number of youth right now who owe banks billions of shillings. Some people’s children are lost because they cannot meet the obligations of banks. This should be done by the cabinet secretary right now so that our children are not lost. They have done things for the Government. They have done roads and quite a number of things in the counties, but they have not been paid. We need something to be done for the youth ...

Lastly, on the 70 constituencies to be created, my submission and prayer is that let them go to the women of Kenya because 60 of us will not come back here. If by God’s grace we come here, 60 of us by 2022 will be 16 per cent. The Constitution says not more than two-thirds of either gender.

In this Bill, if the parents cannot comply with this Bill, they are going to pay a fine of Kshs10,000. This will force parents to take their children to school. This Bill is also calling for ...

Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I rise to support this Bill. We have to inculcate a reading culture in our youths. There is a lot of drunkenness and alcoholism amongst the youth. So, we are to establish a National Library Service that is well equipped. There is the issue of preservation of traditional culture. The National Library Service will encourage publications in native languages so that our children do not forget our cultures. I really support this. There is also the issue of advisory services. The National Library Service will be an advisory centre for all libraries in Kenya, including those ...
