HC Deb 07 February 1996 vol 271 c277W
Mr. Tom Clarke

To ask the Secretary of State for Social Security what provision is made by his Department to provide official documents in braille and large text. [13445]

Mr. Burt

The Department and its agencies have a policy of making public information available in braille and large text and on audio cassette. When producing material for blind and partially sighted people, the recommended guidelines of the Royal National Institute for the Blind and the Government's own document, "Accessible Information Meeting the Government Commitment", are followed.

Facilities are available to produce one-off documents in Braille on request.
