Question to the Department for Education:

To ask Her Majesty's Government what arrangements they have made to discuss with the YMCA the findings of its report Back on Track: Supporting young people out of lockdown, published in August; and what action they are proposing as a result of any such discussions.

Every child and young person in the country has experienced unprecedented disruption to their lives as a result of COVID-19. Supporting young people during this time is our upmost priority.

My noble Friend, the Minister for Civil Society, Baroness Barran, has received the report with thanks and noted its findings. Officials at the Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport have contacted the YMCA and plan to meet with them to discuss the results in more detail.
