Pretty similar here actually. Recently some public information leaflets have been printed in several languages for the benefit of non-English speakers. There's a bit of a debate here about immigration currently. I don't think it's too much to ask that immigrants should be able to speak English. This has been causing a problem since some immigrants ( mainly of Pakistani origin ) have never learnt to speak English and this creates a problem when they need to access public services specifically such as old age care.
