Question
Will the Minister outline what equality assessment work will be carried out by the Welsh Government following admission that it failed to follow the law when stopping free school meals during the holidays?
Answer
Answered by Minister for Education and the Welsh Language
The total expenditure of costs incurred by the Welsh Government as a consequence of the legal challenge has not been confirmed to date.
Upon identification of procedural issues relating to the decision to end holiday free school meal, a full integrated impact assessment was carried out and the relevant assessments are published here: Holiday free school meals impact assessment | GOV.WALES.
