Vicky Foxcroft – 2016 Parliamentary Question to the Ministry of Justice

The below Parliamentary question was asked by Vicky Foxcroft on 2016-03-24.

To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, what contribution his Department is making to Government steps to reduce the incidence of serious youth violence.

Andrew Selous

We continue to play an active role in cross-Government work to tackle gangs and prevent youth violence.

Youth reoffending is too high which is why the justice Secretary has asked Charlie Taylor to conduct a review of youth justice. He will report back later this year with recommendations.
