Youth strategy

 Nick McGOWAN (North-Eastern Metropolitan) (12:33): My question is for Minister Blandthorn. In 2022 thousands of awesome young people contributed to the development of Victoria’s youth strategy, and I am sure you are very familiar with the strategy. In addition to that, the Youth Affairs Council Victoria are calling for some action, so can you advise the house what has happened since the beginning of that strategy being announced in 2022?

 Lizzie BLANDTHORN (Western Metropolitan – Minister for Children, Minister for Disability) (12:33): The question that Mr McGowan raises actually falls within the youth portfolio and is a matter for the Minister for Youth.
