We appear to cater for every foreign language on the planet in the UK - and leaflets and brochures are available to suit! How much does that cost? I have friends in France who are British and they will tell you - if you don't speak the language that's tough in France - they will try and help but they don't waste a fortune catering for non speaking Frenchman.
Can't find current figures but the UK public sector as a whole spent £140m on translation services in 2014.
Council bosses hit back at claims from Communities Secretary Eric Pickles that local authorities are "wasting" money on translation services.
