The Cornish Language

EDM number 1429 in 2015-16, proposed by Angus MacNeil on 27/04/2016.
Categorised under the topic of Cultural heritage.

That this House supports the indigenous and oldest languages of these islands, the Celtic languages; and therefore calls on the Government to reverse its cuts to the smallest and most vulnerable of these languages, Cornish, and instead calls for the support and appreciation of this historical cultural jewel.

This motion has been signed by a total of 42 MPs.
