HC Deb 06 July 1994 vol 246 c237W
Mr. Ieuan Wyn Jones

To ask the Secretary of State for Wales, pursuant to his answer of 16 June,Official Report, column 651, what considerations led him to issue "Implications of Local Government Reorganisation in Wales for Health Boundaries and Proposals for Restructuring Health Authorities" in the English language only; if he will make it his policy to issue all consultation documents in bilingual form; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Gwilym Jones

Timing constraints made it impractical to issue a Welsh version. Each case is considered on its merits but whenever possible consultation documents will be made available in English and Welsh.
