TELEVISION LICENCE CONCESSIONS FOR HEARING-IMPAIRED PEOPLE

Early day motion 29, tabled 25 May 2010 by Adrian Sanders (Liberal Democrat). Signed by 36 members.

That this House notes that people with a visual impairment receive a concession of 50 per cent. of the television licence fee; is concerned that hearing-impaired people do not receive any similar concessions; believes it is equitable to offer hearing-impaired people a concession to the licence fee; and encourages the Government to create a concession to the licence fee for hearing-impaired people.
