FUTURE LEADERS? – Simon Hart MP is pictured with Youth Parliament Wales candidates Cai Phillips and Laurie Thomas, both pupils at Ysgol Bro Myrddin in Carmarthen.
The Youth Parliament Wales consists of 60 members aged from 11 – 18 years, who identify, debate and raise awareness of issues within Wales.
The next Youth Parliament elections take place from November 5 – 25th.
Mr Hart said: "It was great to meet these two youngsters who are willing to put themselves forward for this role. Anything that encourages more people to take part in democracy and think about the choices we face is to be welcomed."
