Mr. Kevin McCarthy:
We are committed to that dialogue as part of the development of this new policy, which we hope to have finalised by the summer.
There is a mix of approaches when it comes to youth services in terms of universal services and targeted services. Both have a role to play. Both are equally important in their different ways. There are a number of actors, as the Deputy rightly identified, who have an involvement in this. Hopefully, the new policy framework will allow us to put a better shape on that into the future.
