Plaid Cymru and SNP call for UK to translate EU Constitution into Welsh and Scottish Gaelic

SNP and Plaid Cymru Euro-MPs have urged the UK Government to get a move on if the proposed EU constitution is to be translated into Welsh and Scots Gaelic ahead of any referendum. Both parties want to see the draft treaty available in Welsh and Gaelic, as well as English, to ensure an informed debate in the referendum campaign. However, the Foreign Office in London told Eurolang that the Constitution would only be translated into Welsh and that there were 'no plans' for translations of any of the other languages in the UK state.
