Part of the debate – in the Senedd at 6:15 pm on 16 May 2018.
Siân Gwenllian stated there's no clear framework in terms of tackling poverty, that they can't reach targets, and that's perhaps why they don't want those targets in place any longer. I was speaking on child poverty when I was first elected, and those targets were in place for a reason so that we could track what the Welsh Government was doing. Without those targets, that simply isn't possible. Congratulations too to Gwynedd Council who have tried to do away with zero-hours contracts and have restored the school uniform grant in Gwynedd. It's important that we speak about what's happening positively at a local authority level.
