The Government’s Crown Commercial Service recently announced that its new interpreting and translation framework agreement has started.
It includes BSL/English interpreting and translation, and covers many public services, including medical appointments, court cases and media.
But what does it mean and how might it affect you?
The National Union of Sign Language Interpreters (NUBSLI) has written and signed a set of Frequently Asked Questions about this.
You can see them here: http://www.nubsli.com/guidance/ccs-interpreting-and-translation-framework-agreement/ in both BSL and English.
If you have any questions about the framework that haven’t been answered, NUBSLI have told us they will be happy to add to their FAQs.
