Part of 2. 2. Questions to the Cabinet Secretary for Communities and Children – in the Senedd at 2:38 pm on 14 December 2016.
Thank you for that answer. But, Cabinet Secretary, could you explain why the Welsh Government have seen fit to reduce funding for the Family Fund charity from £2,508,950 in 2015-16 to a figure of £1.9 million for the next three years? That is in comparison to the Scottish, Northern Irish and Westminster Governments, who have all decided to retain the same level of funding they had previously. This seems to run slightly counter to your previous answers this afternoon, which indicate that your view is that the economic situation in Wales is improving.
