Mrs. Maria Miller: To ask the Secretary of State for Education and Skills what funding has been allocated to Millennium Volunteers to September 2007; how much funding will be provided in the next three years; and if he will make a statement. [119691]
Mr. Dhanda
[holding answer 8 February 2007]: A total of £106.9 million has been allocated to Millennium Volunteers (MV) since its launch in 1999 up to 31 March 2007. A further allocation of £15 million will be made for the 2007-08 financial year ending on 31 March 2008. The funding in 2007-08 is to be transferred to Cabinet Office. The intention is that responsibility for management of the programme will transfer to v, the new youth volunteering body. The continuation of
Millennium Volunteers from 2008-09 onwards will be subject to the outcomes of the Comprehensive Spending Review, to be concluded later this year.
Jim Cousins: To ask the Secretary of State for Education and Skills how many and what percentage of (a) 16 to 18, (b) 17 and (c) 18-year-olds were not in education, employment or training in each local education authority area in the North East region in November (i) 2004, (ii) 2005 and (iii) 2006.

Mr. Plaskitt: I have been asked to reply
The specific information requested is not available.
This is because the figures are taken from the Annual Population Survey (APS) but are not available for individual months. The APS is designed to be an annual survey and the sample size is too small to provide monthly estimates.
Therefore although information could be provided for the North East region it cannot be provided for the specific month of November.
The available information is in the table.
