This article explores the emerging need for bilingual statutory interpretation within the United Kingdom and explains the significance of the High Court and Court of Appeal judgments in R (on behalf of Driver) v Rhondda Cynon Tâf County Borough Council both in terms of the process of statutory interpretation and with regard to its potential impact on the future of England and Wales as a unified jurisdiction. It draws upon the UK’s approaches to multilingual obligations under international law, and on comparative experiences of multilingualism within a domestic legal system.
