A new written statement - marking the first anniversary of the UN Committee on the Rights of the Child's Concluding Observation report has been released by Carl Sargeant, Cabinet Secretary for Communities and Children.
It says:
A year ago today, the United Nations Committee on the Rights of the Child published its 2016 report on the United Kingdom’s progress in implementing children’s rights since it last reported in 2008.
The report was informed by evidence from all parts of the UK. At the time, the Committee took note of Wales’ progress in relation to children’s rights, for example, our Together for Children and Young People programme to support improved mental health for children and young people, and efforts on coordinating a better response to child sexual exploitation. The Committee also praised how the right to play is promoted in Wales.
Our work on children’s rights continues.
