The government, through Sport England, works in partnership with local authorities to maximise the impact of this investment and safeguard it within the tough economic climate in which we all operate.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p>Sports policy is devolved and therefore the investment in swimming pools in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland is a matter for the devolved governments and Sport Wales, Sport Scotland and Sport Northern Ireland respectively.</p> answering member constituency Chatham and Aylesford answering member printed Tracey Crouch question first answered 12/07/2017 14:42:46 answering member 3950 label Biography information for Dame Tracey Crouch

	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 02/05/2023 answer text <p>The Government recognises the vital role that youth services and activities play in improving the life chances and wellbeing of young people.The Government has committed to a National Youth Guarantee: that by 2025, every young person will have access to regular clubs and activities, adventures away from home and opportunities to volunteer. This is supported by a three-year investment of over £500 million in youth services, reflecting young people's priorities and addressing the inconsistencies in national youth spending with a firm focus on levelling up. Young people in Stockport will benefit from elements of the National Youth Guarantee, for example, a year-round National Citizen Service programme; increased access to the Duke of Edinburgh’s Award; and volunteering opportunities through #iwill fund.</p><p>As set out in section 507B of the Education Act 1996, Local Authorities have a statutory duty to ‘secure, so far as is reasonably practicable, sufficient provision of educational and recreational leisure-time activities for young people’. This is funded from the Local Government settlement, the majority of which is un-ringfenced, allowing local authorities to spend on services according to local priorities, including on youth services. The settlement is anticipated to be almost £60 billion this year (FY 23/24) for councils in England - a 9% increase on the previous year.</p> answering member constituency Pudsey answering member printed Stuart Andrew question first answered 02/05/2023 15:58:07 answering member 4032 label Biography information for Stuart Andrew
