Question to the Department for Education:

To ask the Secretary of State for Education, with reference to page 5, Part 2 of the Government's Digital Strategy, published on 1 March 2017, with whom she plans to consult to ensure that adults who lack core digital skills can access specified basic digital skills training; and what qualifications she envisages those adults attaining on completion of that training.

The Government intends to consult with sector experts, education providers and the public to ensure that adults who lack core digital skills can access specified basic digital skills training. We will also work closely with key stakeholders in order to identify, and where required, support the quality improvement of the most appropriate courses and qualifications for these adults to ensure they can secure basic digital skills.
