NO - Jonathan Morgan, assembly member and health spokesman for Wales, Conservative Party

Questions need to be asked about why the Government now intends to change the Wales Youth Agency's status. I am proud of the fact that it was a Conservative government that established the Wales Youth Agency in 1992.

It is a body that has provided valuable support to young people throughout Wales and has helped the voluntary sector develop the capabilities of young people for more than a decade.
