That's a good question, Vampy. But considering that their spoken language is English, SEE would work for signing their oral language. The thing that separates BSL into a separate language is that it does not have spoken form, and has a structure separate from ASL, and other signed languages. The structure amy be similar to ASL, or FLS, or any other signed langauge, but structure is still different in that it represents the communication needs of that population.
