Question to the Department for Digital, Culture, Media & Sport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport, whether he plans to change the status of full-time volunteers from not being in education, employment or training.

The recently published Review of Full Time Social Action by Young People considered the legal status of young people who could be recorded as NEET (Not in Education, Employment or Training) while taking part in full time social action.

The Government will publish its response to the Review’s report in due course.
