BILINGUAL RAIL ANNOUNCEMENTS

Early day motion 1924, tabled 16 July 2007 by Chris Bryant (Labour). Signed by 9 members.

That this House notes that the announcements at all railway stations in Wales are made in Welsh first and then in English; wholly supports the policy of bilingual announcements; but believes that it would be far more sensible and far more convenient for passengers, whether regular commuters or local visitors, if announcements at each station were made first in the language used by the majority of the local population.

Signatures by party: Labour 8, Conservative 1.
