'Connexions Brand Guidelines for Local Authorities' a DfES document proposes that Connexions could be extended to cover more youth support services. The document was produced to examine issues that local authorities may face when they take responsibility for IAG services in April 2008. Although no firm decision has been made as to the future of the Connexions brand, many have expressed concern for this approach. There are fears that if some services are linked to closely to Connexions this will deter young people from using them. The role of the Personal Adviser would also be affected by such changes to Connexions.
