Judicial Appointments Commission Welsh Language Scheme

The consultation is aimed at those with an interest in judicial appointments, including the judiciary, potential candidates, legal professional bodies and groups with Welsh interests.

This voluntary, specialised scheme has been developed to better specify how we treat the Welsh and English languages when using our independent approach to assessing candidates’ suitability for judicial appointment in Wales. It also explains how we enable candidates to communicate with us through the medium of English or Welsh, according to their personal choice, which we will facilitate at every opportunity so far as is appropriate in the circumstances and reasonably practicable.

There is also a Welsh language version of this consultation available.
