Scots and Gaelic languages on ID cards

Dr. Geraint Bevan made this Freedom of Information request to Home Office

The request was successful.

From: Dr. Geraint Bevan

7 February 2009

Dear Sir or Madam,

Meg Hillier MP, speaking in a Westminster Hall debate [1] on the
inclusion of the Welsh language on ID cards, said:

"I am very supportive in principle, as my hon. Friends are aware,
of doing what we can to provide an option of having Welsh language
on identity cards."

Can you please tell me whether there are any plans to make the
Scots and Gaelic languages available as options on ID cards,
whether any discussions have taken place regarding the issue and,
if so, provide me with copies of any such records?

Yours faithfully,

Dr. Geraint Bevan
