It will follow the launch of a consultation on a play strategy for under-12s by the Office of the First Minister and Deputy First Minister last week. Launched by children's minister Maria Eagle, the draft strategy aims to build on the 10-year strategy for children and young people released earlier this year.
The Northern Ireland Children's Commissioner, Barney McNeany, welcomed the strategy and urged people to make submissions. The deadline for the consultation on the under-12 strategy is 31 January 2007.
