I move amendment No. 5:

In page 12, subsection (1)(i), line 13, after “support” to insert “in accordance with the Youth Work Act 2001”.

Section 10 sets out the general functions of an education and training board. Under subsection (1)(i) one of the functions will be to "support the provision, coordination, administration and assessment of youth work services in its functional area and provide such information as may be requested by the Minister for Children and Youth Affairs in relation to such support". The amendment proposes to insert the words "in accordance with the Youth Work Act 2001” after the word "support". This will require education and training boards to carry out the prescribed functions in accordance with that Act.
