DCMW gives evidence to Children's Budgeting Inquiry The DCMW campaign has given evidence to the National Assembly for Wales' Children and Young People's Committee's inquiry into children's budgeting. The inquiry is looking at the resources national and local government allocates to polices, programmes and services that benefit children, and about whether these adequately reflect the needs of children and young people. The DCMW campaign submitted written evidence to the committee which identified the following as key issues:
  • Failure of the policy making process to influence budgetary decisions.
  • Lack of transparency in the budgetary process.
  • Inadequate systems to provide a detailed breakdown of funding.
  • Chronic need to identify spending on disabled children. Nicollette Shercliff, Keith Bowen and Zoe Richards from the campaign also went to the Senedd to give evidence to the Committee. You can read the evidence the Committee transcript on the National Assembly for Wales website.
