Commenting on today’s publication of the Assembly Government’s Welsh language Measure, Shadow Minister for the Welsh language Paul Davies AM said:
“Welsh Conservatives are committed to supporting the Welsh language.
“This significant piece of legislation requires detailed study and I look forward to questioning the minister on the government’s proposals at the earliest opportunity.
“All the significant developments in the Welsh language have come under Conservative governments, including the Welsh Language Act, the creation of S4C, and the establishment of the Welsh Language Board.
“We are determined to ensure this new legislation does not erect barriers to businesses in Wales which would damage investment and competitiveness. Nor must it discriminate against English speakers.”
