As part of Prime Minister Rishi Sunak’s reshuffle the youth brief has been handed to under-secretary of state for the Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS) Stuart Andrew.
As well as youth policy he is also minister for a raft of areas including sport, tourism, charities, as well as ceremonial events, most notably the coronation of King Charles III next year.
