actual example of gobbledygook:

Your enquiry about the use of the entrance area at the library for the purpose of displaying posters and leaflets about Welfare and Supplementary Benefit rights, gives rise to the question of the provenance and authoritativeness of the material to be displayed. Posters and leaflets issued by the Central Office of Information, the Department of Health and Social Security and other authoritative bodies are usually displayed in libraries, but items of a disputatious or polemic kind, whilst not necessarily excluded, are considered individually.

[translated: "Thank you for your letter asking to put up posters in the entrance area of the library. Before we can respond, we need to see a copy of the posters to make sure they won't offend anyone."]
