National Youth Strategy
Debate between Baroness Twycross and Lord Bailey of Paddington
Lord Bailey of Paddington (Con)
My Lords, given that the uniformed cadet service has more than 139,000 members and provides some of the best social mobility available to young people, exposing them to some of the most highly trained and highly dedicated people in the world, can the Minister guarantee that it will take part in the formation of this national youth strategy?
Baroness Twycross (Lab)
We encourage all young people involved in existing schemes to take part and get engaged with the formation of the strategy. I will take the noble Lord’s point back to the department and write to him to ensure that happens.
