Craffu ar Gyllideb Ddrafft Comisiwn y Senedd ar gyfer 2024-25: Sesiwn dystiolaeth
Thanks, Chair. If I begin by saying a lot of negotiation has taken place, obviously, with our trade union partners, in the spirit of social partnership. The total estimated cost of the payments, which are going to be made in October and in February, is around…

Ymchwiliad i Strategaeth Ddrafft Tlodi Plant Llywodraeth Cymru: sesiwn dystiolaeth 3
Thank you. And do you think it's fair to say that the Welsh Government shouldn't just consider where best practice is available from, but also how transferrable that best practice is to Wales? Because, often, we've been told by academics for many, many years…

Thank you. And just a quick question to Ally: are you able to point to any best practices that exist across Europe in terms of ensuring that the rights of the child are considered in strategic approaches? Any specifics—?

Ymchwiliad i Strategaeth Ddrafft Tlodi Plant Llywodraeth Cymru: sesiwn dystiolaeth 1
So, an action plan with targets that are clearly measurable and transparent. Okay. Great. Thank you. And how do the rights of the child inform child poverty strategies and policies in the countries that you've worked in?
25 Medi 2023 , Equality and Social Justice Committee
Ymchwiliad i Strategaeth Ddrafft Tlodi Plant Llywodraeth Cymru: sesiwn dystiolaeth 1
Yes, thank you. Thanks, Chair. I'm just going to ask a few questions about the development of a child poverty strategy, and I was wondering whether any of you could outline what you believe are the key components of a robust strategy, and whether you're aware…
