​According to the FOI act, please can you provide an estimate cost of all print and postage for the 2021 census.

We said

Thank you for your request.

Our estimate of cost of printing and postage for the 2021 census is around £42 million. This includes printed materials including letters (initial contact and reminders), questionnaires, leaflets, postcards, ID badges, on request content and an estimate of post costs including estimates for future tranches of Reminder Letters (which will be based on response rates) and expectations of paper form returns.
