Debate

Business of the House

Contribution

I thank my hon. Friend for bringing this matter to the House, and I absolutely endorse her remarks about more people being able to use and understand sign language, because it is a vital means of communication for many people. I hope that this week raises some much-needed awareness of the importance of British Sign Language, so I take this opportunity, along with the whole House, to wish everyone a happy Sign Language Week.
