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

What plans he has to discuss the establishment of a youth full-time social action pilot programme with delivery organisations.

I met both Steve Holliday, the Chair of the Full Time Social Action Review, and City Year, a provider of full time social action, in May.

I have no further plans to discuss a pilot programme with delivery organisations.

We are committed to supporting young people to take action on the issues they care about, and has invested in youth social action through programmes including the #iwill campaign and the National Citizen Service.
