There is no place for racism, sexism, homophobia or any other kind of discrimination in sport. Tackling discrimination lies at the heart of the cross-government sport strategy "Sporting Future". We want sport to be at the forefront of equality, and we work with national governing bodies of sport and organisations such as Kick It Out and Stonewall to tackle discrimination in local, national and international sport.<\/p>

In relation to football specifically the Government is alive to a rise in the numbers of reported incidents of discrimination at all levels of the sport. I will be inviting the FA, English Football League, Premier League, players\u2019 representatives, and groups such as Stonewall and the Community Security Trust among others, to discuss what more football can do to stamp out racist, homophobic and anti-semitic abuse.<\/p>

The UK and the EU have worked intensively together to get the best deal for businesses and citizens. Discussions with the EU on the UK\u2019s continued relationship on cyber-related matters have been focused on achieving this and that is why the Political Declaration includes a commitment to promote security and stability in cyberspace through increased international cooperation.

Government is fully committed to the Civil Society Strategy: it is the beginning of an ambitious, evolving work programme to help build a strong society.<\/p>

As part of this, DCMS is supporting Good Help as a strategic partner. This includes brokering relationships with other government departments, and supporting Nesta, Osca and the National Lottery Community Fund on developing their work on Good Help in statutory services as part of the Good Help Advisory Board. We are not providing funding, but are acting in a facilitating role.<\/p>

In 2018 events were held across the UK with practitioners, funders and people who use services to agree what the Good Help programme should focus on. Now Osca delivery partners (Nesta and Osca staff) are working with commissioners, policy officials and foundations to formally design the programme.<\/p>

Removing the barriers that can make it harder for some young people to enter work and reach their full potential is vital to the future prosperity and productivity of our society. As part of the Civil Society Strategy, the Government committed to working with the National Lottery Community Fund to allocate £90 million from dormant bank accounts to a new, independent organisation to tackle this issue. The Founding Chair of this new organisation is being appointed by a nomination panel independent of government, and their decision will be announced in due course.<\/p>

While this organisation is being set up, the National Lottery Community Fund are allocating £1.2m of the £90m dormant accounts funding to three key areas facing particular challenges in their levels of youth unemployment.

The Charity Commission performs an important role as independent registrar and regulator of charities in England and Wales. Government officials have regular meetings with the Charity Commission to discuss a broad range of topics, including the Commission\u2019s resourcing.<\/p>

In January 2018, government increased the Charity Commission\u2019s annual budget by £5m, in recognition of increased demands on its core regulatory functions.<\/p>
