“The WLIA went through several drafts between February and April 2021. The drafts were edited and commented on by Ms Crowhurst in email exchanges with Ms Morgan. The final version owed much to the efforts of both. It was dated 16 February 2021 but finalised on 7 May 2021, with the date unchanged. It was eventually published in June 2021 as a council document, not under the banner of Red Shiny Apple Limited, though the council acknowledged that it was a report that had been commissioned from an independent consultant.”
“The report on the consultation (the consultation report) was dated 26 February 2021 but published in May 2021. The conclusion was that the proposals should proceed. The consultation report explained that there were 234 responses and, in addition, an online petition with 413 signatures. The large majority of those who responded opposed the proposal. Among the concerns raised by, among others, the Undeb Cenedlaethol Athrawon Cymru (National Union of Teachers of Wales (UCAC)) was an adverse effect on use of the Welsh language.”
