The Member makes a very worthwhile point, and we need to consider, always, how we can break down barriers that affect people’s ability to learn. We have, as a Government, developed our youth homelessness pathway, which was launched by the Cabinet Secretary for Communities and Children late last year, which sets out a comprehensive approach for helping young people to avoid homelessness, and the Cabinet Secretary for Communities and Children has announced earlier last month an additional £2.6 million for new projects, which will particularly focus on tackling rough sleeping and youth homelessness.
