Social Inclusion

My Lords, I have learnt a great deal throughout the debate and I hope that we have initiated a new, key debate on multiculturalism. I look forward to it continuing. We have covered much ground, from new models of community support for older people through to a fundamental review of the youth justice system and consideration of fostering; from civil servant secondments to the concept of a new national service for volunteering and concepts of civic participation; from a holistic approach to HATs in Castle Vale to police officers who organise community football teams for local children. If the aim of this debate was to create food for thought, we have achieved it. I thank the Minister for her thoughtful response and your Lordships for your insightful contributions. I believe that there will be some important follow-up from this debate. I beg leave to withdraw the Motion for Papers. Motion for Papers, by leave, withdrawn.
