Dear Welsh Government,
Your response to my original freedom request is unsatisfactory.
If you truly wish to employ people who can use the welsh Language while communicating with others then this has to be justifiable in legal terms.
The discrimination legislation precludes you from including in any job description anything that would not allow a person to apply for or be considered for that job if it is not essential for the role for which the job requires.

Your current consideration that only people who can communicate in welsh is discriminatory unless you can justify it in legal terms. I therefore request an internal review of you current response to my FOI of internal emails and the original language used in them.

Yours faithfully,

Mr D Shaw

Welsh Government
