Four Councils gave information specifically about their Community Planning in answer to the questions asked. These Councils are:
- Aberdeen City Council has not received any requests for information about community planning. The Council does have a record of one Deaf person being involved in meetings about Community Planning, as a BSL/English Interpreter has been booked for each meeting and a number of Deafened people have been involved. The Council will provide information in BSL if this is requested, and has made a commitment to providing all information on Community Planning in Plain English but has yet to implement this.
- Inverclyde Council stated that they “engage with Inverclyde Community Care Forum and Inverclyde Council on Disability to invite communities to events, and they are able to help to support any Deaf Sign Language Users, Deafblind and Deafened people” in the Community Planning process.
- North Ayrshire Council supplied the following answer “The Council’s website has information on community planning and the Council states that it is accessible to anyone who needs this information. BSL/English interpreters are available on demand and have been provided at a few events. Documents are published with advice from the Corporate Communications Department.”
- Stirling Council will provide information in BSL and in Plain English on request.

Hi there. I just wanted to inform you that some components of your website are hard to read for me, as I’m color blind. I have deuteranopia, however there are more varieties of color blindness that will also have problems. I can read most of the website Okay, and the parts I have problems with I am able to read by employing a custom browser. In any case, it would be cool if you could bear in mind we color-blind folk when doing your next web site design. Cheers.
