Will the Cabinet Secretary confirm what advice or guidance the Welsh Government has provided to local planning authorities regarding the language or languages used in naming housing developments, streets and new infrastructure?

Local Planning Authorities may use Local Development Plan policies and Supplementary Planning Guidance to encourage the use of Welsh names for new developments.  This advice is set out in Technical Advice Note (TAN) 20, paragraph 4.1.2.
