HC Deb 26 July 1993 vol 229 cc647-8W
Mr. Matthew Taylor

To ask the President of the Board of Trade (1) what arrangements his Department makes to ensure that blind and partially sighted people have access to information produced by his Department where it has not been published in alternative media such as Braille, large print or tape;

(2) what is his Department's policy on which information produced by his Department is published in alternative media to standard print such as Braille, tape or large print.

Mr. Eggar

The Department's information materials are freely available. We are not aware of widespread demand for them to be separately prepared for blind and partially sighted people, but the need for such provision is kept under review.
