I am delighted to announce that I have decided to re\-appoint the current members of the Welsh Government's Welsh for Adults Scrutiny Committee for a further two years. The current term of the Chair Steve Morris and Members, Anna Skalistira Bakratseva, Helen Barlow, and Richard Houdmont, ends on 31 March 2021\.


The Chairman and the three Members have accepted my invitation to remain on the Committee for a further two years until 31 March 2023\. I am grateful and very pleased with the Committee's contribution over the last few years and I am confident that they have scrutinized the work of the National Centre for Learning Welsh effectively, giving me assurance that the Centre is contributing to the objectives of Cymraeg 2050, the Welsh Government's strategy for the Welsh language.


The Committee's contribution is going to be more important than ever over the next couple of years as we plan Learn Welsh provision after the National Centre’s current grant term ends on 31 July 2022\. The advice and support of an experienced Scrutiny Committee will be important to Ministers during that period.


Here are the details of the Scrutiny Committee membership:
