The motion

That this House celebrates Sutmae-Shwmae Day on 15 October 2018; notes that this day celebrates the establishment and growth of the Welsh language; encourages people across Wales to embrace and use the Welsh language, whether they are fluent or are in the process of learning the language; recognises the events being held across Wales to bring people together to greet each other in Welsh; believes the Welsh language sustains and inspires the culture of Wales; and calls on the Government to secure the future of the Welsh language by encouraging greater use of Welsh and ensuring that speakers have opportunities to use the language wherever they choose to do so.
