Stage otherUpdated 5mo ago

This legislative act aims to update the official terminology used to describe people with hearing impairments. It proposes replacing the term 'deaf-mute' with 'deaf and/or preverbal deaf' to better reflect current linguistic and social understanding of disability. This change primarily affects public administration, legal documents, and healthcare records, ensuring more respectful and accurate language for citizens with hearing impairments.
