The British Sign Language (BSL) (Wales) Act requires Welsh Ministers to publish a national BSL strategy and guidance by 29th October 2027, within 18 months of the Act coming into force. Early implementation work on both is already underway, including engagement with the Welsh Government BSL Stakeholder Group. We are beginning preparatory work to support the development of statutory guidance for public bodies. The Act requires Welsh Ministers to appoint a BSL adviser and we are expecting to appoint the adviser by early 2027, so that they can support the development and implementation of duties under the Act.
