What the Minister has just said is very worrying, if it is the case that this Bill for the first time restricts free literacy and numeracy courses to those over 25. The duty on the chief executive to provide free education in literacy and numeracy level 2 and A-levels is restricted to people between the ages of 19 and 25. If that is actually a first restriction, it is very serious and concerning.
