Kit Malthouse MP said on a recent File on Four programme that the government is going to “look more towards a disruption strategy that says we need to make [ the drugs ] business so hard to do in the UK that there is no point exploiting young people in the first place, at the same time supporting them and intervening with them early to make sure they don’t get involved in the trade.” Please outline exactly what funding the government have given you for intervention work with young people at risk from county lines exploitation?
