Sir/Madam

 

I am registering my displeasure at  ORTA  being exempted from the

Disability Discrimination Act ffor the period of the Sydney Olympics &

Paraolympics.   Australia andf Sydney will be the laughing stock of the

world.  As a paraplegic I am very angry at this and probably will nit come

accross for the games.
