Deiseb a wrthodwyd Continue funding Free School Meals throughout the school holidays in Wales

It is shocking that Mark Drakeford can appear on ITV on 17 July 2023 and claim that it's Westminster's fault that Wales cannot afford £15m to continue funding Free School Meals over school holidays when over double that figure is being wasted on the unnecessary and unwanted 20mph scheme
Wales has the WORST child poverty levels in the UK. In 2015 Welsh Labour pledged to eradicate child poverty in Wales by 2020. In 2015 31% of children in Wales lived in poverty. In 2020 it was 32%. It is now 34%

According to the Welsh Government's own report, it will cost roughly £32.5m to implement the 20mph scheme and cost the Welsh economy £4.5 BILLION

£122m is unaccounted for BCUHB but the Senedd dropped the investigation into why and no further action will be taken. That money would pay for FSM through the school holidays for the next 8 YEARS. They claim 20mph will save the NHS £200m a year yet the most common reason for childhood hospitalisations is NOT RTAs, it's TOOTH DECAY.

Mark Drakeford blames Westminster for not giving Wales enough money and yet in March the UK treasury took back 150m from Wales because it hadn't spent the money in time despite Wales having the:
worst child poverty in the UK
highest unemployment figures in the UK
poorest mental health in the UK
longest NHS waiting lists in the UK

The problem is not a lack of money, it's poor money management and misplaced priorities from those in charge.

Scrap the 20mph
Find the £122m
PRIORITISE TACKLING CHILD POVERTY IN WALES

Pam gwrthodwyd y ddeiseb hon?

Mae deiseb yn bodoli eisoes ar y mater hwn. Ni allwn dderbyn deiseb newydd os oes un yn bodoli eisoes ar fater tebyg iawn, neu os yw’r Pwyllgor Deisebau wedi ystyried deiseb debyg yn ystod y flwyddyn ddiwethaf.

Mae deiseb arall sy'n galw am hyn eisoes yn casglu llofnodion: Adfer taliadau ar gyfer prydau ysgol am ddim (yn seiliedig ar brawf modd) yn ystod yr holl wyliau ysgol

Byddech yn fwy tebygol o gael canlyniad ar y mater hwn pe baech yn llofnodi a rhannu’r un ddeiseb

Dim ond deisebau nad ydynt yn bodloni’r safonau ar gyfer deisebau y byddwn yn eu gwrthod

Mae deisebau a wrthodwyd yn cael eu cyhoeddi yn yr iaith y cawsant eu cyflwyno ynddi
