Interpreters and Translation Services

Department for Education written question – answered on 4th March 2022.

Dan Carden Labour, Liverpool, Walton

To ask the Secretary of State for Education, whether he has made an assessment of the potential merits of protecting the titles of interpreters and translators in law.

Alex Burghart The Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State for Education

Matters of professional titles and what qualifications and skills a person needs for entry to a profession are for employers and professional bodies. The Department for Education has no role in such matters.

There are a range of interpreting and translating qualifications available to learners to facilitate access to interpreting and translating professions, some of which are approved for public funding. Eligibility for funding will depend on individual circumstances and prior learning.
