Towards 2016, the Social Partnership Agreement 2006-2015, provides for consideration to be given to the need for a further plan following a review in 2008 of the National Youth Work Development Plan 2003-2007. The Programme for Government commits to supporting a new Youth Work Development Plan for the period 2008-2012.
In that context my Department will commence the process of reviewing the 2003-2007 Plan, and will then, taking into consideration the review and any other relevant advice or information, consider how best to progress a new Plan. The budget available for any new Plan will, of course, be determined by the annual estimates process and any initiatives pursued will have to take account of the resources available to my Department.
