Cyhoeddodd Pwyllgor y Cenhedloedd Unedig ar Hawliau’r Plentyn adroddiad Rhestr o Faterion Cyn Adrodd (LOIPR) ar gyfer chweched a seithfed adroddiad cyfunol Teyrnas Unedig Prydain Fawr a Gogledd Iwerddon ym mis Chwefror 2021\. Cyhoeddodd Llywodraeth y Deyrnas Unedig ei hadroddiad mewn ymateb i’r rhestr o faterion ar 15 Mehefin 2022\. 


Mae adroddiad LOIPR Pwyllgor y Cenhedloedd Unedig yn darparu cwestiynau ar gyfer Gwladwriaeth y DU sy’n barti ar feysydd datganoledig a heb eu datganoli ac mae’r adroddiad hwn yn rhoi’r wybodaeth ddiweddaraf ar gynnydd mewn meysydd polisi yng Nghymru y mae gan Lywodraeth Cymru gyfrifoldeb drostynt.


Rwy’n falch o gyhoeddi’r trosolwg pwysig hwn o gynnydd yng Nghymru mewn ymateb i adroddiad LOIPR y Cenhedloedd Unedig. Rwy’n ymwybodol iawn bod yr adroddiad hwn wedi ei osod yn erbyn cefndir pandemig Covid\-19, Brexit a’r argyfwng costau byw. Ni ddylid tanamcangyfrif effaith pandemig Covid\-19 ar blant a phobl ifanc ac mae’r adroddiad hwn yn darparu manylion y camau gweithredu niferus a gymerwyd fel llywodraeth i gefnogi plant a phobl ifanc.


Yn ystod y cyfnod adrodd cyflawnwyd nifer o bethau sylweddol a amlygir yn yr adroddiad hwn. Ym mis Mawrth eleni, cyhoeddais ein Cynllun Plant a Phobl Ifanc, y mae Confensiwn y Cenhedloedd Unedig ar Hawliau’r Plentyn yn greiddiol iddo. Mae cyflawniadau allweddol eraill yn cynnwys Deddf Plant (Diddymu Amddiffyniad Cosb Resymol) (Cymru) 2020 a ddaeth i rym ar 21 Mawrth 2022, a gostwng yr oedran pleidleisio i gynnwys pobl ifanc 16 ac 17 oed mewn etholiadau lleol ac etholiadau Llywodraeth Cymru.


Rwyf am i Gymru fod yn lle gwych i dyfu fyny, byw a gweithio ynddo, lle mae pob plentyn a pherson ifanc yn cael eu gwerthfawrogi, ac mae’r adroddiad hwn yn nodi ein cynnydd o ran ceisio cyrraedd yr amcanion hynny. Mae adroddiad Cymru y Cenhedloedd Unedig ar gael ar wefan Llywodraeth Cymru, mae dolen isod.

The United Nations (UN) Committee on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC) published the List of Issues Prior to Reporting (LOIPR) report of the combined sixth and seventh reports of United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland in February 2021\. The United Kingdom Government published itsreport in response to the List of issues on 15 June 2022\. 


The UN Committee’s LOIPR report provides questions for the UK State party on both devolved and non\-devolved areas and this report provides updates on progress in Wales on policy areas that are the responsibility for the Welsh Government.


I am pleased to publish this important overview of progress in Wales in response to the UN LOIPR report. I am very conscious that this report is set against the background of the Covid\-19 pandemic, Brexit and a cost of living crisis. The impact of the Covid\-19 pandemic on children and young people should not be underestimated and this report provides details of the numerous actions taken as a government to support children and young people.


During the reporting period there have been a number of significant achievements which are highlighted in this report. In March of this year, I published our Children and Young People’s Plan, which places the UNCRC at its heart.  Other key achievements include the Children (Abolition of Defence of Reasonable Punishment) (Wales) Act 2020 which came into force on 21 March 2022 and the lowering of the voting age to include 16 and 17 year olds in Welsh Government and local elections.


I want Wales to be a wonderful place to grow up, live and to work, where all children and young people are valued, and this report sets out our progress in striving to reach those goals. The UN Wales report is available on the Welsh Government’s website, a link is provided below.
