Committee for Employment and Learning - Inquiry into young people Not in Education, Employment or Training

The Committee for Employment and Learning recognises that there are a significant number of our young people aged 16 to 24 who are not in education, employment or training (NEET). Members wish to undertake an inquiry in conjunction with the relevant stakeholders to examine the basis of that situation, the work that is being undertaken already to help/re-engage these young people and to establish what elements would be required to develop a NEET Strategy and cross-departmental Action/Implementation Programmes to address this issue.
