Will the First Minister ensure that all Welsh Government ministers and officials do not refer to the Falkland Islands as Las Malvinas in all government business?
Answered by First Minister | Answered on 08/09/2026
The term Falkland Islands is the standard name used by the Government of the Falkland Islands, and in most English-language contexts. The Welsh Government has no plans to issue specific guidance to Ministers or officials on the use of the terms ‘Falkland Islands’ or ‘Las Malvinas’.
