Comhairle na nÓg

Since 2002, the CDB has facilitated an annual Comhairle na nÓg AGM for 12-18 year olds, in conjunction with FDYS Youthwork Ireland and Wexford County Council.  The County Comhairle na nÓg acts as an advisory panel on services and needs to ensure that young people are given a voice on issues which affect them.  This is demonstrated by the annual meetings between the youth cabinet and the Economic & Social Development SPC.  The nominees of the Comhairle na nÓg also participate at the national Dáil na nÓg.  Building on a pilot with Wexford County Childcare Committee, it is intended to develop a model for participation with 7–12 year olds to support the participation of primary age school children.  The ultimate aim is to support children’s participation from Wexford in the National Dáil na Páisti.
