Early day motion tabled by primary sponsor Chris Bryant (Labour), on Monday, 16 July 2007, in the House of Commons. It is signed by 9 members in total.
BILINGUAL RAIL ANNOUNCEMENTS
That this House notes that the announcements at all railway stations in Wales are made in Welsh first and then in English; wholly supports the policy of bilingual announcements; but believes that it would be far more sensible and far more convenient for passengers, whether regular commuters or local visitors, if announcements at each station were made first in the language used by the majority of the local population.
