Registration of Births, Deaths and Marriages (Welsh Language Provision) Bill

[As Introduced]
A
BILL
to

This bill requires local authorities in Wales to provide registration services for births, deaths, and marriages conducted entirely in Welsh. It ensures that Welshspeaking citizens can complete all official registration processes, submitting forms, receiving documents, and conducting business, without using English. The bill aims to strengthen Welsh language rights in a key civic process and reflects Wales's status as a bilingual nation with Welsh as an official language.

Presented by Mr Alex Barros-Curtis.
