The British Youth Council is helping the Liberal Democrats develop their youth policies.
The council consulted its member organisations on the policy developments they would like to see in five areas: education and skills, governance, health, quality of life and the law.
The council recommended replacing the three-tier national minimum wage with a two-tier system, which does not depend on age, but experience. It also suggested mandatory pupil-led school councils; a more supportive antisocial behaviour agenda; increased funding for vocational learning and the lowering of the voting age to 16.
The document will inform the party's youth policies next year.
