Re: Draft Welsh Language Standards (No.9) Regulations 2023
Dear Jeremy,
Thank you for your letter dated 27 June 2023, advising of your intention to lay the draft Welsh Language Standards (No.9) Regulations 2023 (“the Regulations”) before the Senedd.
We discussed your letter at our meeting on Thursday, 29 June 2023. We note that you laid the Regulations before the Senedd on 27 June 2023. I am writing to confirm that the Committee does not intend to scrutinise and report on these Regulations.
Whilst the Committee has opted not to
undertake scrutiny of these specific Regulations, the Committee
would welcome the opportunity to consider and undertake scrutiny of
future Welsh Language Standards regulations. We ask that sufficient
time is provided in future to allow the Committee to undertake such
scrutiny and to allow the Committee to publish a report. The Welsh
Government has previously provided advanced notice of such regulations
being laid and has offered to take into account the
Committee’s consideration of such regulations when arranging
the date for a Plenary debate. We would be grateful if this could
be factored into the introduction of future Welsh Language
Standards regulations.
Yours sincerely,
Delyth
