Youth Development Commission convenes 11th meeting (with photo)
***************************************************************
Members agreed that the Blueprint should outline the vision, directions and major work areas of youth development work in a comprehensive manner and set out the respective future work plans, specific actions, initiatives and indicators. Members agreed that the YDC and the Home and Youth Affairs Bureau should organise a series of activities to engage young people and other stakeholders and consult their views on the Blueprint.
Mr Chan, who chaired the YDC meeting for the first time, said, "The Youth Development Blueprint is the first important guiding document on the promotion of youth development formulated by the Government. I would like to express my gratitude to members for raising various pragmatic views and suggestions at today's meeting. The Government will continue to collect young people's and other stakeholders' views on the Blueprint through different means, and target to promulgate and announce the first edition of the Blueprint by the end of this year. Subsequently, the Government will continuously review and enrich the content of the Blueprint to ensure that the Blueprint is abreast of the times and can address the need of youths."
