"Welsh MPs have called for greater freedom to conduct debates in Parliament in the
Welsh language.
Labour's Paul Flynn called for "practical arrangements of reasonable value" to allow
Welsh-language speeches when Welsh business is discussed.
Plaid Cymru MP Jonathan Edwards agreed, saying the Welsh affairs and Welsh grand
committees should be bilingual."
