Hi Barry,

You are right, that's why the DDA is a load of brown stuff.

They might just counter with reasonable adjustment.  If it is not cost
effective to make a reasonable adjustment, such as putting a system that
costs thousands in place when profits are at a minimal, then they won't be
forced to do so by the DDA.  I think this is the argument that Jim's local
authority are using already.

Hello Jim,

Have you tried the three (magic?) letters D D A?  It can certainly be
argued that, under the terms of the act, they should provide a system
accessible to all.

Cheers,

Hi Carol,

The first thing they said was how much (or not) money they have in the
kitty! So if the technology was available, I'm sure it would be
considered. However, I'm having a hard enough time trying to get them to
even look into what technology is available now to make this system
accessible.

Thanks for your comments though its appreciated.
Jim.
