Tayside Police are the latest to respond to the query from Celtic League General Secretary, Rhisiart Tal-e-bot, about cultural committment and the Celtic languages.

So far responses have come from police serives in Wales, Scotland and Mann. Most Welsh forces were extremely enthusiastic, whilst Tayside's colleagues in the Northern Constabulary were most upbeat. Even the tiny Isle of Man Constabulary were 'cautiously' positive.

On the basis of responses to date it seems Tayside's is the most lacklustre!

Dear Rhisiart

Tayside Police: Scottish Gaelic Language and Cultural Commitment

Thank you for your letter regarding the use of the Gaelic language and the ramifications for Tayside Police.

Tayside Police support equality and diversity throughout the organisation and have a range of policy and guidance documents that support and underpin these issues, and which acknowledge the religious, cultural and linguistic needs of all our members of staff.

Whilst we have an ever increasing demand for linguistic services I am not aware of any previous requirement for a Gaelic language speaker, or indeed any additional requirement for bilingual signage.

I hope that this assists you with your research and I am grateful to have the opportunity to respond.

Yours sincerely

Colin McCashey Chief Superintendent Divisional Commander"
