Proceeding contribution from Lord Addington (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Thursday, 15 October 2009. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Apprenticeships, Skills, Children and Learning Bill.


Apprenticeships, Skills, Children and Learning Bill

My Lords, I thank the Minister for that reply, which was slightly more helpful than I had expected, but nowhere near as helpful as I had hoped. I could wax long about the importance of volunteers in sport but I think that noble Lords’ attention would wane if I did so. The Government have said that funding routes are available in this regard. However, it is evident that volunteer coaches do not have a grab-hold on this system of funding. I do not know whether that issue will be followed up in the Bill but I thank the Minister for clarifying the position. I beg leave to withdraw the amendment. Amendment 211 withdrawn. Clause 98 agreed. Clause 99 agreed. Clause 100 : Performance assessments Amendments 211A and 212 not moved. Clause 100 agreed. Clause 101 agreed. Clause 102 : Assistance and support in relation to apprenticeship places Amendment 213 not moved. Clause 102 agreed. Clauses 103 to 108 agreed. Clause 109 : Strategies for functions of Chief Executive Amendments 213A and 213B not moved. Clause 109 agreed. Clauses 110 to 112 agreed. Amendment 214 not moved. Clause 113 : Persons subject to adult detention Debate on whether Clause 113 should stand part of the Bill.
