Parole Board launches its Welsh Language Scheme 2018-2020

The Parole Board has launched its Welsh Language Scheme 2018-2020, which has been approved by the Welsh Language Commissioner.
The act requires public bodies to produce a language scheme to explain which services they will provide in Welsh, how they will do so and when.
The Parole Board has adopted the principle that in the conduct of public business and the administration of justice in Wales, it will treat the English and Welsh languages on a basis of equality, so far as is both appropriate in the circumstances and reasonably practicable. The Welsh Language Scheme sets out how the Board will give effect to that principle in the services to the public in Wales for which it is responsible.
The Scheme has been adopted by the Parole Board Management Committee and was approved by the Welsh Language Commissioner on 10 August 2018.
