WELSH language campaigners demanded the reversal of “severe and damaging” cuts to the publishing sector today.

Cymdeithas yr Iaith (the Welsh Language Society) wrote an open letter to Welsh language cabinet secretary Mark Drakeford about the cuts.

According to the Books Council for Wales (BCW), the cuts to its budget for Welsh-language publications are equivalent to 40 per cent in real terms over the last 10 years.
