To ask His Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of the effects on SEND provision of transferring SEND responsibilities from central government to regional authorities.
To ask His Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of the effects on SEND provision of transferring SEND responsibilities from central government to regional authorities.
Some regional bodies, including Mayoral Strategic Authorities, are already working to support local authorities across their regions, as those local authorities deliver their statutory duties relating to special educational needs and disabilities (SEND).
The department will continue to work with regional authorities to consider how they could further support our reforms to the SEND system to improve outcomes for children and young people with SEND. There will be further announcements on devolution in due course.
To ask His Majesty's Government what discussions they have had regarding the devolution of education and skills powers to mayoral combined authorities.
To ask His Majesty's Government what discussions they have had regarding the devolution of education and skills powers to mayoral combined authorities.
The department engages regularly with Mayoral Strategic Authorities on a wide range of issues, including the devolved skills powers and funding they hold, and their role as leaders in their local skills systems. Skills devolution is an important mechanism for enabling more responsive and locally tailored provision that meets the needs of learners, employers and regional economies.
The government recognises the value of empowering Strategic Authorities to shape skills provision in line with local priorities. Through ongoing engagement, the department will continue to explore opportunities to build on existing devolution arrangements, ensuring that skills investment supports local growth and delivers outcomes that reflect the needs of communities across England.

We know youth unemployment and inactivity is too high in all areas of the UK and it is vital young people can access comprehensive support and quality opportunities wherever they live.
We are already working to better integrate national and local labour market provision in England through local Get Britain Working partnerships and through our Youth Guarantee Trailblazer partnerships with eight Strategic Authorities. These recognise the importance of different partners working together to drive better integration of services regardless of who delivers them.
The interim report is an important step in our work to tackle youth inactivity, and we will consider Alan Milburn’s full recommendations in the autumn as we shape the next phase of reform.

We could argue about the figures but, in the academic year 2025-2026, it was the case that the Government made a small cut to the adult skills fund in the very challenging fiscal context that we inherited. There have been no further reductions, nor will there be for this forthcoming...

Much of what we will be talking about in the next parliamentary Session will obviously relate to special educational needs and disability funding and provision in schools, both in early years and post-16. What we are talking about today is adult skills funding, which, as I said, for those with...
