Credit to the indefatigable Syniadau for drawing attention to today's official launch of the National Theatre Wales.
An English-language National Theatre for Wales is long overdue. It was first announced in 2007 as part of the One Wales deal, and will now run as a touring theatre to different venues across the country, like Scotland's National Theatre. Another feather in the cap for Wales' creative industries.
It took Plaid Cymru's insistence to get this into the One Wales deal- it was lifted from the Plaid election manifesto into the coalition programme- and it is especially important that this has been delivered by a Plaid Minister. Rhodri Glyn Thomas deserves a huge amount of credit for this, as it shows Plaid looking out for both of our languages.
I Agree With Roy Hattersley!

Excellent post and v.true Labour on their own would never have done this, sad but true.
How does setting up an English-language theatre company show Plaid looking after "both" of our languages?
Plaid have delivered none of their manifesto commitments on the Welsh language - not a single one.
