The position is as outlined in the reply of 27th September 2006.

A review of the provision of youth information facilities has recently been completed and the report falls to be considered by the National Youth Work Advisory Committee (NYWAC) and by my Department. The report has been referred to the steering committee in advance of being considered by NYWAC and my Department. I expect that process will take some time and I await the outcome.
