:Why an application for a vehicle licence form V10 is not published in the Welsh language.

It is. The Welsh version VIO(W) is normally available in Wales from main post offices and local vehicle licensing offices.

:What percentage of: (1) applications for a driving licence form DI and DIW; and (2) family income supplement from FISI were

Forms DI and DI(W) are equally available in Wales: the automatically-issued renewal reminder form DII(W) is in both languages and goes to all Welsh addresses; we estimate that in 1975 about I per cent. (90,000) of driving licence applications were made in Welsh. FISI were first issued in 1971 when the family income supplement scheme started; in 1975, 1,000 were printed in Welsh and made available for issue on request in DHSS local offices in Wales. I regret that the other information requested is not available.
