The biggest request from people with low literacy is what is on, what to do & where to go. Yet this is rarely commissioned. How do we change that?

A further comment following editorial note from Australian Policy Online
The following editorial note was emailed to subscribers and posted on LinkedIn by Australian Policy Online (APO) last week:
A further comment from us following the editorial note from the Australian Policy Online acknowledging Easy English and Easy Read are different. Yeah!
There is 20 years of evidence. Why is it being ignored?
