Professor Colin H Williams, School of Welsh: “Bilingualism in law in practice: the experience of Belarus and the United Kingdom.”

This event has ended.

It will result in developing concrete proposals how to ensure that the rights of people to access legal information and conduct official business in their preferred official language.\"
