Apprenticeships, Skills, Children and Learning Bill

Does the Minister share the concern about constraints for home authorities in relation to the increasing distance between the home authority and the locations in which young people are housed in custodial establishments? Will she consider how the Bill squares with the decision of the Youth Justice Board to remove contracts in relation to secure children's homes, which often house some of the most vulnerable young people? Indeed, in London, there will be no secure children's home; the nearest is in Southampton.
