“For deafblind people the fundamental problem is cultural, not just legal. What is missing is full recognition of deafblind people for their disabilities specifically. The bill recently approved by the government goes in this direction and we hope that parliament will approve it as soon as possible.” This was stated by Francesco Mercurio, President of the Committee of Deafblind People, on the sidelines of the event organized by the Lega del Filo d'Oro at the Chamber of Deputies for the presentation of the Manifesto of deafblind people.
