§ Mr. Win GriffithsTo ask the Secretary of State for Wales if he will publish for each county education authority the number of teachers employed who are(a) able to undertake Welsh language teaching at the primary and secondary levels, as required by the national 272W curriculum and (b) in possession of the appropriate subject qualifications to ensure the national curriculum is properly delivered in all Welsh language secondary schools.
§ Mr. RobertsThe number of teachers who have a qualification in Welsh as either a first or second language, and who will thus be able to contribute to the teaching of Welsh as part of the national curriculum is shown in the table:
