[lg policy] Welsh language to be allowed in MPs' Welsh Grand Committee

[Dave Sayers]

"The move does not change the rules as they apply to general House of Commons debates.

The cost of translation services - both interpreters and headsets - will be absorbed 
within Parliament's existing budgets, the UK government said."

Parenthetical note to the above: currently in open Parliamentary debate only English 
is allowed. Additionally, for endorsements on Bills and other set piece events they 
use Norman French, of course:
