To ask the Secretary of State for Education and Employment what consultation he has carried out with young people on the New Deal. [14371]
Mr. Andrew Smith
Nationally, the Employment Service commissioned a consultation exercise to discover young people's expectations of the New Deal. A detailed report will be published before the end of the year but results have already been used in the design of the New Deal provision. In addition, individual Regions and Districts will have carried out widespread consultation including obtaining the views of young people.
