Moot point - depends on what is considered a 'reasonable adjustment'. My take is that 'if you can see it you should also le able to hear it and if you cam hear it you should also be able to read it' is a reasonable adjustment. Overcomplicating things does not assist but obscures.

My gut feeling is that this is taking things too far and anybody that is deaf or dumb would be able to read normal text so the sign language would be unnecessary. Am I wrong? Any feedback would be appreciated. Cheers, Julian Voelcker Cirencester, United Kingdom
