I totally agree with you there and it's about time the Welsh Government pulled their fingers out and did something about it. As the Children's commissioners, Sally Holland said in the link - Child poverty is the biggest issue facing the Welsh Government.Quote:

It’s heartening to see the opening poster highlight yet more failures of our Welsh Government, this time childhood poverty and children going hungry in Wales together with other areas where the WG is failing, as you have said specifically health and as highlighted again this week, education.
Nick, there's no doubt that the WG isn't up to standard. In fact, they're useless. But, wouldn't you agree that their hands are tied, somewhat, by the party in power in the UK government and the austerity that they have imposed?Quote:
