Disability code
3 May 2005
This is MMP’s submission to ICASA on the Draft Code of Good Practice for disability coverage by the Broadcasting Industry. The Draft Code of Good Practice is to be viewed as an extremely positive development in providing people with disabilities with greater opportunities to see their lives reflected on and to play a greater role in setting the agenda of the broadcast media and telecommunications sector. However, the successful implementation of the code requires commitment from both ICASA and the broadcast media and telecommunications sector to adhere to the key principles outlined in the code.
