Text
Mr Kingston asked the Minister for the Economy, in light of the fact that a number of parents contacted him in August about young people who were affected by the changing criteria for the skills for life and work programme and were unable to get a further education college placement, and given that, although that has since been resolved, it remains important that young people do not find themselves not in education, employment or training, whether she can ensure that the system can cope with finding alternative placements for young people who have changed their mind about leaving school or taking up a college place or training course.
