From: Liz Leveridge Sent: Wednesday, 25 November 2009 2:18 PM To: disabdis Subject: Re: Objectin to recent application by Dear Sir/Madam I am writing to you to voice our objection to the recent application made by Village Roadshow, Greater Union, Hoyts and Reading Cinemas requesting exemption from the Disability Discrimination Act for a period of two and a half years. This means that Australians who are Deaf, hard of hearing, legally blind and vision impaired, including older Australians, stand to lose their right to complain to the Human Rights Commission about the lack of provision of captioning and audio description services at ANY of the 125 cinemas (1182 screens) owned by these four exhibitors. Fair go for all thank you. Yours sincerely Liz Leveridge
