About this service
In accordance with the National Assembly for Wales Welsh Language Scheme, documents that are not primarily drafted for use by the public, are generally produced in English only. Nonetheless, we endeavour to make some Members' Research Service publications available in Welsh also after taking account of their subject matter, length and life span.
Users requiring a file in an alternative format to that which is currently available on this website should contact us. We will do our best to accommodate all requests.
If you would like to promote your research through this service, please contact us and we will include your work on our pages.
