answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 05/07/2023 answer text <p>The Platinum Jubilee, the funeral of Her Late Majesty and the Coronation of King Charles III and Queen Camilla were hugely important state occasions for our nation. They brought millions of people around the country and Commonwealth together and showcased the best of the United Kingdom to the world. Communities celebrated the Platinum Jubilee in around 16,000 local street parties across the UK while the funeral of Queen Elizabeth II was watched by hundreds of millions around the world.</p><p>Major Royal events such as these provide a significant boost to the UK economy through tourism, our hospitality industry and to the many other businesses that will have seen an increase in trade. VisitEngland projected that overnight holiday breaks in the UK during the Coronation Bank Holiday weekend would generate an estimated £1.2 billion economic boost, while UKHospitality estimated a £350 million boost for the hospitality industry over the long weekend.</p> answering member constituency Pudsey answering member printed Stuart Andrew question first answered 05/07/2023 16:32:46 answering member 4032 label Biography information for Stuart Andrew

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 03/07/2023 answer text <p>A range of Government departments have an interest in chess. For example, the Department for Education would lead on chess in schools.</p><p>Within the Department for Culture, Media and Sport, ultimately the Secretary of State would have overall responsibility, while other issues would fall to different Ministers depending on the nature of the issue. For example, the Minister for Sport, Gambling and Civil Society would have an interest in questions related to promoting chess to young people outside school - while the Minister for Media, Tourism and Creative Industries would engage the gaming industry on online forms of chess.</p> answering member constituency Pudsey answering member printed Stuart Andrew question first answered 03/07/2023 08:57:13 answering member 4032 label Biography information for Stuart Andrew

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 04/07/2023 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.</p><p>Recognising this, 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.</p><p>As part of the National Youth Guarantee, the Youth Investment Fund will level up access to services for young people across the country. The Youth Investment Fund will target investment in less advantaged areas of England, where young people have the greatest need. The £300m fund is place-based and locally led, with 45 local authorities and over 600 district wards eligible to apply. Leicester, including Leicester East, has been eligible for this funding and although the fund is now closed for new applications, we anticipate making the next round of funding announcements this summer.</p><p>Young people in Leicester will also benefit from other elements of the National Youth Guarantee, for example, a year-round National Citizen Service programme; increased access to the Duke of Edinburgh’s Award; expanded uniformed youth groups and volunteering opportunities through the #iwill Fund.</p> answering member constituency Pudsey answering member printed Stuart Andrew question first answered 04/07/2023 11:09:12 answering member 4032 label Biography information for Stuart Andrew

tabling member printed	Lord Hay of Ballyore
uin	HL8824
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 04/07/2023 answer text <p>His Majesty’s Government recognises that, while millions of people gamble online without experiencing problems, for some it becomes an addiction with serious consequences. It is particularly important to take steps to protect vulnerable people, including young people, from risks associated with problem online gambling.</p><p>The Department for Culture, Media and Sport recently published a White Paper following our review of the Gambling Act 2005. This White Paper outlines a range of proportionate measures to tackle practices and products which can drive harm and ensure that people who are at risk of gambling harm and addiction are protected. These include new player protection checks, a stake limit for online slots games, improvements to consumer redress, and a statutory levy on operators to fund research, education and treatment.</p><p>We will work with the Gambling Commission and others to bring these measures into force at the earliest possible opportunity. Where further consultations are necessary, our aim is to publish them as quickly as possible.</p> answering member printed Lord Parkinson of Whitley Bay question first answered 04/07/2023 15:34:37 answering member 4728 label Biography information for Lord Parkinson of Whitley Bay
