HC Deb 07 February 1968 vol 758 c184W
Mr. William Edwards

asked the Postmaster-General if he will give an estimate of the total cost of producing the Welsh language forms so far published by him.

Mr. Edward Short:

At present my Department publishes two Welsh language forms which reach the public, the estimated cost of which is £100. A booklet which is used by staff in sorting offices has cost about £250.

On the 1st May broadcast receiving licences issued by post offices in Wales and Monmouthshire will be bilingual. The initial cost of this will be about £5,000 and the annual cost thereafter about £3,000.
