Proceeding contribution from Lisa Nandy (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 22 March 2012. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Services for Young People.


Services for Young People

Although the Minister is absolutely right not to be complacent about young people's involvement, the Committee was very keen to ensure that we listened to young people, but that we did not take the young people to whom we spoke as necessarily representing others. They were representing themselves, and we found that incredibly valuable. If he is so keen to listen to young people, will he listen to the overwhelming anger and frustration that the abolition of education maintenance allowance caused and reinstate it with immediate effect?
