00:00From time to time through history, the greatest need has been for facts.
00:06Facts to know where to build new schools, new houses, hospitals, factories, roads.
00:13We need facts to help fight sickness and disease.
00:15And that is why on April the 25th, we are asking you to fill in the 1971 census.
00:21An army of men and women with light blue satchels will deliver and collect them from every household in Britain.
00:29With no exceptions.
00:33The form is secret. There is nothing to fear from completing it.
00:37When its contents have been analysed, it will be locked away for a hundred years under guard.
00:44And all these officials are pledged to secrecy.
00:50Identify them by the blue satchel. It's the big form with a big job to do.
00:55We need the facts from you.
