In May of last year, this report was published by the Member of Parliament for Arfon, Hywel Williams, and me, setting out the case for a medical school for north Wales. Your announcement on expanding medical education in north Wales is a significant and important step in the right direction, and is the result of a strong local campaign in Arfon.

In your statement you say this:

'these new arrangements will provide more opportunities for Welsh speakers to undertake their studies in Welsh.'

Can you expand upon that and how exactly that will happen?
