HC Deb 02 May 2002 vol 384 c899W
Dr. Starkey

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, Local Government and the Regions on what subjects and on which dates his Department has consulted organisations representing young people; and if he will list such organisations. [52491]

Ms Keeble

This information is not held centrally in the manner requested and could be secured only at disproportionate cost.

The Department is committed to the new core principles for the involvement of children and young people published by the Minister for Young People in November 2001. The Department will shortly be publishing an action plan setting out for the first time how it will implement these principles to extend the participation of children and young people in the design, provision and evaluation of policies and services that affect them.
