It seems that such permission forms may be unlwfull, particularly if the
only way a student could access the lecture/seminar is by using a recording
mechanism (human or technological). It is like a non disabled  students
asking permission to write down notes in the same lecture. Or a student
asking for permission to listening to the lecture or even to seeing his/her
slides. Of course there are reasons for such permissions. It is my
impression that those reasons are not lawful under senda. Andy Velarde DSU

Subject: Permission to record sensitive seminars


Has anyone developed "permission forms" (or similar system) for
participants of seminars to sign in order to allow one of their
(disabled) colleagues to record the seminars/have a support worker
present?  This seems to be a particular issue in seminars of a sensitive
nature such as counselling.

I would really appreciate it if you could share systems that you have in
place with us, to save starting from scratch.

Many thanks (in hopeful anticipation!)
Jo
