Part of 3. Questions to the Assembly Commission – in the Senedd at 3:10 pm on 6 March 2019.
I was privileged to chair the inspiring first meeting of the Welsh Youth Parliament here in the Siambr a little over a week ago. Perhaps Members will be aware that the Youth Parliament formally agreed three priority issues to pursue: emotional and mental health support was one of those; littering and plastic waste is another; and also life skills in the curriculum. Commission staff and the 60 Welsh Youth Parliament Members will meet next in the regions in April to devise a plan to engage with young people across Wales on the priority issues chosen by them.
