I guess you should contact your national/federal deaf society (or other similar organisations) to ask about it.
As for VRS, it seems that VRS in Australia was made available for several years now? Source |
Brian,
As far as I know, there is no VRS in AUstralia. ONLY video remote service -- it is similar to VRS but it is quite rare down here and it is not spreadly around in the AUS yet.
And thus far, we do have some VP's similar to these VP's you found in the source and similar to these Ojo VP's but unfortuntely, they are not cheap. One VP similar to Ojo costs us $400 each. Deaf Australia Inc is trying their best to be the same as U.S but the government is not listening.
