Alternattiva Demokratika endorses the deaf community’s request for programmes hosting political debates on PBS to include a sign language interpreter.
AD chairman Michael Briguglio said: "AD endorses the request of the deaf community for true inclusion in political activities and discussions between political parties by having Maltese sign language interpreters."
AD spokeswoman for disability issues Claire Azzopardi Lane said AD’s manifesto stated that changes in the constitution were required so that Maltese sign language would become recognised as an official language.
