Question 45373 — press and books

Summary

Mr. Gérard Leseul draws the attention of the Minister of Culture to the expectations of blind people in France regarding their access to the world of books. This access depends on the facilitation of the dissemination of the braille system and the financial resources that are allocated. Today, we still see a very small proportion of existing works on the market available in Braille. This lack compromises access to culture for the blind and particularly for young people who are experiencing difficulties in their studies. It should also be noted that the prices of these works are much higher than others, which constitutes a real inequality to the disadvantage of the visually impaired. The MP recalls that the Federation of the Blind and Amblyopic of France has already formulated several avenues to improve the current situation. He questions him in order to take knowledge of the measures that the Government plans to implement in this context to improve access to books for the blind.
