My Department has spent approximately €10,000 on the implementation of the Official Languages Act 2003 to date in 2005. A provisional estimate for translation services for the remainder of 2005 is €12,000. However, this amount may vary depending on the number and length of documents to be translated. It is difficult to give a precise estimate of the total amount that will be spent on all elements relating to the Official Languages Act for the remainder of 2005 as this is dependant on various factors.
