You mentioned action there and the Welsh in education strategic plans are one way of taking action. These have now been introduced by all the education authorities in Wales, but apparently they are disappointing to say the least. I don’t need to remind you how crucial it is that we increase Welsh-medium education if we are to reach the ambition of 1 million Welsh speakers by 2050. This was emphasised again today by the Welsh Language Commissioner, who was also calling for a radical chance to the education system if this objective is to be attained.

How will you support these local authorities in strengthening these plans from where they currently stand? Will you consider giving Estyn a role as they oversee education authorities and inspect them? They may have a role in monitoring and enhancing the Welsh-medium provision as part of their core work.
