Proceeding contribution from Lord Sharpe of Epsom (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 29 March 2023. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Anti-social Behaviour Action Plan.


Anti-social Behaviour Action Plan

I can neither confirm nor deny the first part of the noble Baroness’s question because I have not seen the report, so I do not have detailed knowledge of the situation to which she refers. I go back to my answer in my initial remarks, which is that 1 million extra hours of youth services are planned under this programme. We will invest over £500 million to provide high-quality local youth services so that, by 2025, every young person will have access to regular clubs and activities, adventures away from home and opportunities to volunteer—the sort of life-enriching stuff that we would probably all take for granted. I hope they make the most of those opportunities.
