Gweledigaeth LlC/WG’s Vision “…mae Llywodraeth Cynulliad Cymru yn gyson wedi’i gwneud hi’n glir bod
lleihau tlodi plant yn elfen sylfaenol o’i hagenda cyfiawnder cymdeithasol yn ogystal ag yn rhan o’i hegwyddorion allweddol ar gyfer gweithredu Confensiwn y Cenhedloedd Unedig ar Hawliau’r Plentyn (CCUHP)”. (Huw Lewis AC y cyn-Ddirprwy Weinidog dros Blant, Strategaeth Tlodi Plant
Cymru Chwefror 2011 Dogfen wybodaeth Rhif: 095/2011)
“…the Welsh Assembly Government has consistently made it clear that reducing child poverty is a fundamental element of its social justice agenda and also part of its key priorities to implement the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC)”. (Huw Lewis, the
former Deputy Minister for Children, Ministerial Forward, Child Poverty Strategy for Wales, February 2011, Information document No: 095/2011)

Child Poverty is like a spider’s
web: it is very difficult to
free oneself once inside
it.

times, takes 3.34 hrs, no buses after 13.25 and no buses back after 15.58
