Fact Sheet - Auslan interpreter service provision and disability discrimination

You may be interested in this Fact Sheet regarding the provision of Auslan interpreter services and disability discrimination law. The fact sheet was prepared by the Disability Discrimination Legal Centre in NSW.

However, if you are members/people outside of NSW, please note that it talks about both the Disability Discrimination Act 1992 (Cth) (which applies right across Australia) and also the Anti-Discrimination Act 1977 (NSW) (which only applies in NSW; but of which each State and Territory has a roughly equivalent piece of legislation).
