However, not all of these will cover departmental policies and schemes that are applicable to Wales. Approximately 4% of the forms are available in Welsh.</p><br /><p>In the case of UK Trade &amp; Investment (UKTI), as trade and investment is devolved to Wales, Welsh language support for business is available at the Welsh Government’s website at <a href="https://business.wales.gov.uk/cy" target="_blank">https://business.wales.gov.uk/cy</a></p><br /><p>UKTI has aimed to be inclusive by advertising in Welsh as part of its Exporting is GREAT campaign. Though none of UKTI’s forms are in Welsh, contact forms from organisations with a Welsh postcode are directed to Business Wales. Contact forms for investors are not in Welsh but the audience is overseas businesses based outside the UK.</p>
