Part of 1. 1. Questions to the Cabinet Secretary for Communities and Children – in the Senedd at 2:01 pm on 16 November 2016.
Can I thank the Cabinet Secretary for his answer, because I think I also have concerns over the future of this programme, and the Lift programme in particular, which helps people back into employment and targets deprived areas? I think he gave reassurances that they are there for the future. Can he also give assurances that, as he considers and deliberates on the consultation following his mind to end the Communities First programmes, how those will work in those areas, because they actually are focused upon Communities First and they are partly integrated with Communities First at this moment, so that we can ensure they go on beyond a possible end to Communities First?
