RNIB AWARENESS WEEK, 15TH - 22ND JUNE 2004

Motion Text

That this House commends the RNIB for its RNIB Awareness Week 2004 taking place between 15th and 22nd June; recognises that this year's theme is employment in the run up to the introduction of the Disability Discrimination Act in October, which ends the exemption of businesses with fewer than 15 people from existing disability legislation; awaits the related APPG meeting and reception on 15th June which specifically address this subject; and congratulates the Royal National Institute for the Blind for organising this period of heightened awareness and all those taking part in the campaign.
