At this meeting it was acknowledged that the present proposals were not good enough and that a better outcome was needed. The CEOs said that digital technology would make a big difference. Bill Shorten said that deaf and blind people are patient but they need a concrete plan, otherwise they just get frustrated with no progress.
The next step is a further meeting with the government, disability groups, the cinema CEOs and MAA to progress this further. This is expected to happen in mid-May.
