Child poverty strategy for Wales published
Child poverty strategy for Wales published
Platform 51 Cymru welcomes the publication of the Assembly's Child Poverty Strategy for Wales. Linda Pritchard, Welsh Policy Officer at Platform 51 Cymru, said: "We are pleased that the Assembly is committed to eradicating child poverty and welcome the Strategy's acknowledgement of the link between women's poverty and child poverty."
In our consultation response to the draft Child Poverty Strategy we said we welcomed many of the actions listed in the Strategy, but believed these will be improved and become more effective if a gendered approach is adopted so that women, and their children, will be supported out of poverty.
