answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 01/12/2014 answer text <p>Section 22 of the Welsh Language Act states that in any legal proceedings in Wales, the Welsh language may be spoken by any party, witness or other person who desires to use it. The act does not establish the right to use Welsh in court hearings outside Wales. However, HMCTS’ Welsh Language Scheme allows judicial discretion to decide on whether evidence can be presented in Welsh for hearings taking place in England. If permission is granted HMCTS “will arrange translation facilities as readily and freely as they do in courts in Wales”.</p> answering member constituency North West Cambridgeshire answering member printed Mr Shailesh Vara question first answered 01/12/2014 17:41:33 answering member 1496 label Biography information for Shailesh Vara
