in their communities.</p><p> </p><p>Local authorities are primarily responsible for
allocating public funding to youth services in their area. In addition, the Government

create and expand open access youth projects, and is expected to benefit up to 300,000
young people. This is part of a wider range of Government investment in services and
opportunities for young people such as the #iwill fund and National Citizen Service.</p><p>
