CAMPAIGNERS have slammed a Senedd scrutiny committee report for failing to hold the government to account on plans to support children learning Welsh.

The Senedd's children, young people and education committee published its first report on the Welsh Language and Education Bill today.

The legislation is intended to provide a statutory basis for the Welsh government’s target of there being one million Welsh speakers by 2050 and ensuring that all children leave school as confident speakers of the language.
