The value for Money and Policy Review of youth funding schemes is nearing completion. It is anticipated that this report will be finalised in June. It will include recommendations for the future operation of these youth schemes and will shape their development in the years ahead to ensure quality, effective, value for money services that are evidence based and designed to secure the best outcomes for young people. The review’s recommendations will further inform the development of a new Youth Strategy which will aim to improve coordination between Government departments and youth sector organisations with a view to maximising the effectiveness of State funding in achieving youth policy objectives.
