<p>I was sorry to learn about the closure of the British Youth Council and want to
express gratitude for its work over the years. Government is committed to the delivery
of the UK Youth Parliament and intends to use funding allocated to BYC in 2024/25
to support the programme. We are working alongside previous UKYP delivery partners
from English regions and the devolved administrations, to understand the implications
of BYCs closure for programme delivery. We have been working at pace to identify a
suitable organisation which can hold overall grant management responsibility for the
UKYP 24/25. A preferred candidate has been identified and we are currently undertaking
final due diligence checks and negotiating terms and I will update the house as soon
as next steps have been formalised.</p><p> </p>
