Right To Read (EDM1424)

Right To Read

EDM number 1424 in 2001-02, proposed by Alan Meale on 12/06/2002.

That this House believes that a massive injection of public money is required to produce more books for the blind and partially sighted; further believes that such citizens have the right to read published materials as much as normal sighted individuals; and calls upon Her Majesty's Government to establish immediately a fund to achieve these objectives.

This motion has been signed by a total of 54 MPs.
