§ Ms KeebleThe Government do intend to announce a further round of funding under the Neighbourhood Management programme. We are keen to learn early lessons from the first round of Pathfinders to help shape our approach in a second round. My Department is developing options for taking this forward, and I hope to be able to announce details of a further round by late spring/early summer.
