Liz Saville Roberts – 2015 Parliamentary Question to the Cabinet Office

The below Parliamentary question was asked by Liz Saville Roberts on 2015-10-20.

To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, when his Department will make available the first draft of the Cabinet Office’s Welsh Language Scheme as required by the Welsh Language Act 1993.

Matthew Hancock

The Welsh Language Act does not require government departments to prepare Welsh Language Schemes.

The Government Digital Service works closely with the Wales Office to ensure that that the Welsh language content on GOV.UK is underpinned by high quality user research that provides a simpler, clearer and faster service for users. It also gives government departments and other organisations which publish material on GOV.UK the ability to publish Welsh-language content in line with the requirements of their individual Welsh Language Schemes.
