Cymdeithas yr Iaith Gymraeg call on MPs and AMs to ensure the rights of everybody in Wales to the Welsh LanguageIt has become apparent that Parliamentary Members in London will be attempting to weaken the draft of the Assembly's LCO for the right to legislate for the Welsh Language. They will consequently threaten to weaken the rights of the Welsh people to the Welsh language.

Bethan Williams, Chairperson of the New Welsh Language Act Group said,“Cymdeithas yr Iaith hope that the Language Order that will be announced at the end of the month will ensure linguistic rights across each sector. It is not the place of London's MPs to suppress any aspect of this vision. ”An example of a language measure compiled in 2007 by Cymdeithas yr Iaith, calls for official status for the language, that a language commissioner is established with necessary power to regulate bodies across every sector, and that there are a series of language rights for the Welsh Language established, thereby normalising the Welsh language, and establishing linguistic rights for everybody in Wales.Bethan Williams elaborates,“To ensure that everybody in Wales has access to the Welsh language in every aspect of their lives, the Language Order must allow the Assembly Government to draw far-reaching language measures. The present act does not allow the rights of the Welsh people to see, learn, work or use the Welsh language in their everyday lives. As things stand, there is no accountability, and no safety nets to regulate occurrences where rights are impinged.”
