However, unlike the NHS, they do not include deaf people. The service for deaf people is entirely different and should not be included with services provided for peple who speak foreign languages. BSL is an essential service which helps not only deaf people but also doctors, etc saving them time (and therefore money) and it could also be life saving. From paper petition
