Yes agree with Heather if people want to give the information the DBV we can write a report for the whole group if people feel uncomfortable in sending an email of your feedback. As agroup it will be a stronger advocacy focus. Do people have the DBV email address? Let me know? Cheers Trudy Hi Trudy and all Just saw your email. Good idea if feedback to Shirley but my suggestion if deafblidnd people around Victoria to send their feedback to Deafblind Victorians (DBV) first then DBV can put all feedback together into a whole group email then send to Shirley or else. It would be helpful if DBV see what many feedback from DB persons and we would think of something to change for taxe to have a better service for deafblind community. It is a thought. I am sure DBV will disccuss this and let you others know Thanks Cheers Heather I have email Trudy and DBV members wha twe think. ----- Original Message ----- From: Trudy Ryall To: dbaust@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Wednesday, March 26, 2014 11:00 AM Subject: [dbaust] Re: Email feedback Taxi Services Commission Public Forum Heather here is another contact details: The Taxi Services Commission (TSC) would be happy to receive your feedback on the needs of the deaf and deafblind community.
