§ The following Questions stood upon the Order Paper:
§ 8 and 12. Mr. S. O. DAVIES: To ask the Secretary of State for Wales (1) whether he has now received the Report of the Hughes-Parry Committee, set up to consider the legal status of the Welsh language; and when it will be published;
§ (2) if he has now received the Report of the Hughes-Parry Committee set up to consider the legal status of the Welsh language; and when it is likely to be published.
§ Mr. T. W. JonesOn a point of order. You will have noticed, Mr. Speaker, that Questions Nos. 8 and 12, in the name of the same hon. Member, are in identical terms, which clearly indicates what is true, namely, that the people of Wales are waiting for some information about this report.
1918 Since my hon. Friend is not present to ask these Questions, I am wondering whether an opportunity will be given this afternoon for the Secretary of State to inform us when this is to be published.
§ Mr. SpeakerI cannot contrive the latter point because it is not within my care. With regard to the other point, I am afraid that all it indicates is that the point was missed.
