§ Mr. BurstowTo ask the Secretary of State for Scotland by what means his Department makes available it publications in(a) Braille, (b) audio tape and (c) large print; and how this is publicised. [1675]
§ Mr. DewarPublications in Braille and audio tape are made available and publicised through the Scottish Braille Press who distribute them to individuals and organisations for the visually impaired throughout Scotland. My Department does not currently produce publications in large print. We are, however, presently considering how we might increase the range of information in alternative formats for people who are visually impaired.
