Each local authority in Wales has a statutory duty to develop and publish a policy on using Welsh internally for the purpose of promoting and facilitating the use of the language.
This policy brings together existing practices, policies and resources relating to Welsh training, the Welsh language standards and our corporate approach to using Welsh in the workplace. Furthermore, through this policy we will work towards becoming a ‘bilingual organisation’ where both languages are valued and used naturally, both formally and informally.
RESOLVED: that the policy on promoting and using Welsh within the Council (attached as Appendix A to the report) be approved in accordance with the Welsh Language Standards (Welsh Language (Wales) Measure 2011).
