Question to the Department for Education:

To ask the Secretary of State for Education, when he next plans to review the Children (Performances and Activities) Regulations 2014; if he will hold discussions with representatives of Brass Bands England as part of such a review; and if he will make a statement.

The government has no current plans to review the Children (Performance and Activities) Regulations 2014, which came into force on 6 February 2015.

Whenever there is a future review and consultation, Brass Bands England would be welcome to contribute to it.

Department officials are always happy to meet sector organisations that wish to raise any questions about the legislation and associated guidance, and will contact Brass Bands England to offer them a meeting.
