I look forward to continuing the work of my predecessor in encouraging the engagement of young people with Parliament. I would welcome suggestions from hon. and rt. hon. members across the House on how we can engage young people and encourage democratic engagement. More widely, the UK Parliament’s Education and Engagement Team supports a variety of work to promote public engagement with the House. I am pleased that the Education Centre has now reopened and that tours can take place once again.
