Question to the Department for Digital, Culture, Media & Sport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport, with reference to page 77 of the Government's Civil Society Strategy published in August 2018, what steps his Department has taken to convene key civil society stakeholders to explore the potential for a common vision and mission for strengthening the leadership of social sector organisations and the potential for specific government interventions.

Since the Strategy was published we have established a stakeholder task and finish group to work with us to design a series of events with social leaders and sector representative groups. These events will explore the enablers and barriers to good social leadership, and agree a strategic vision to inform the development of social leadership in the future. The task and finish group has met twice and will finalise its plans in the coming months.
