HC Deb 10 June 1969 vol 784 c231W
56. Sir Knox Cunningham

asked the Secretary of State for Wales by what authority the 117 different official forms are published solely in Welsh; and what is the approximate cost of producing such forms.

Mr. George Thomas

The statutory powers are contained in the Welsh Language Act, 1967. To isolate the cost of all the Welsh forms would require considerable research and expense, but samples indicate that the range might be from about £40 for 500 copies of relatively simple forms to about £300 for 10,000 for a more complex one with notes.
