Among the rights in the UNCRC is the right for all children under the age of 18 to express a view in relation to decisions that affect them, and for their views to be given due weight in accordance with their age and maturity.As set out in the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (Incorporation) (Scotland) Act 2024, we are committed to ensuring that children and young people across Scotland have access to actively participate in decision making processes, which directly affect them.
