HC Deb 25 July 1969 vol 787 c593W
Mr. G. Elfed Davies

asked the Minister of Transport what consideration is being given to the use of the Welsh language on vehicle excise licence discs; and whether he will make a statement.

Mr. Marsh

My right hon. Friend the Secretary of State for Wales and I have considered this matter and, subject to further consultations with other authorities concerned, I hope that it will be possible to complete the essential preparations to enable bi-lingual vehicle licence discs to be available for issue in Wales and Monmouthshire by 1st January, 1970.
