There are about 9 Million Deaf people in the UK. I think it is fair for the project to have funding.
I am hearing,
This system could be used in everyday life of a deaf person.
(for the last person, Too ashamed to leave name) Can you imagin going to your GP or going in to hospital and having to take someone with you. Not so bad for deaf ladies as there are quite a few lady Interpreters, But a deaf gent would have to have a female interpreter go in with him.
GP could type info onto computer and have it instantly translated into BSL.
Looking a Past work they have done and things they are planning on it will be will well worth the public funding.
The Deaf Comunity needs more funding not less. Should get rid of some political people, or cut their expences, that should help the country out!!!
