Welsh language policy

Welsh is spoken by over a fifth of the population of Wales but is also an essential part of the cultural identity and character of Wales. With many other languages, it forms part of the rich diversity that shapes the social landscape of Wales, the UK and Europe.

We share the Welsh Government’s ambition to see the Welsh language prosper  Accordingly the services we offer reflect the bilingual nature of Wales and play their part in helping to sustain the Welsh language.

Our Welsh Language Policy describes how we will give effect, so far as is both appropriate in the circumstances and reasonably practicable, to the principle established by the Welsh Language Act that, in the conduct of public business, the Welsh and English languages should be treated on a basis of equality.
