Baroness Anelay of St Johns

asked Her Majesty's Government:

Further to the statement by Lord McIntosh of Haringey in his letter of 17 November that "in the next couple of weeks the Department for Culture, Media and Sport will publish a revised draft of its social inclusion action plan which will set out in more detail how we propose to implement the recommendations of the Policy Action Team (PAT) 10 report for the Department for Culture, Media and Sport2" when the revised draft will be published. [HL314]

Lord McIntosh of Haringey

My right honourable friend the Secretary of State expects to endorse a new draft DCMS social inclusion action plan, revised following the successful conference in October, before the Christmas break. It will then be made available to the members of the advisory team, which will help DCMS implement the action plan proposals, to the members of the Policy Action Team on Arts and Sport, to those who attended the conference and to the many others who have read and commented on the Policy Action Team report.
