Proceeding contribution from Simon Hughes (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Monday, 6 October 2008. It occurred during Debate on bill on Dormant Bank and Building Society Accounts Bill [Lords].
Dormant Bank and Building Society Accounts Bill [Lords]
In the hon. Gentleman's work on the Select Committee or elsewhere, did he come to the conclusion that one reason why the Government are so specific about the English priority is because although it has long been argued that there should be money for youth services, it has never been a statutory requirement? Everything else is—children's services and older people's services, for example—but this is the Cinderella service. Making it a priority could be a surrogate way of giving it a bit of solidarity and respectability.
