UN recommendation

Argymhelliad Cymreig clir

Dylai’r Llywodraeth: Ymgynghori â phlant ar yr oed pleidleisio. Os yw’n cael ei ostwng, cryfhau addysg hawliau dynol ac ymwybyddiaeth gynnar o hawliau a dinasyddiaeth weithredol.


Original UN recommendation

The Committee encourages the State party and devolved administrations to conduct consultations with children on the voting age. Should the voting age be lowered, the Committee recommends that the State party ensure that it is supported by active citizenship and human rights education in order to ensure early awareness of children that rights are to be exercised as part of citizenship, with autonomy and responsibility, and that the measure does not lend itself to undue influence.
