Welsh Language Scheme

Welsh Language Scheme

The Planning Inspectorate’s Welsh Language Scheme was prepared in accordance with section 21 of the Welsh Language Act 1993. This revised Scheme was approved by the Welsh Language Board, under section 16 of the Welsh Language Act 1993, on 31 March 2010.

This Scheme sets out how the Planning Inspectorate (the Inspectorate) will give effect to the Principle established by the Welsh Language Act 1993 that, in the conduct of the public businesses and the administration of justice in Wales, the English and Welsh language should be treated on a basis of equality.

It specifies the measures the Inspectorate proposes to take to achieve this, in respect of the provision of services to the public in Wales. It represents what is both appropriate in the circumstances and reasonably practicable.
