HC Deb 10 April 2002 vol 383 c5W
24. Simon Hughes

To ask the Secretary of State for Wales what the mechanisms are for co-ordinating youth policy between his Department, the Welsh Assembly and Welsh local authorities. [44170]

Mr. Touhig

My Department maintains close contacts with both Whitehall and the National Assembly in the appropriate policy areas. The Crime Reduction Director for Wales is part of the Home Office regional team and, as such, provides a link between HO and the National Assembly on relevant aspects of youth policy.
