=== Legislative development in Australia === The government of Australia provided [[seed funding]] in 1981 for the establishment of the Australian Caption Centre (ACC) and the purchase of equipment. Captioning by the ACC commenced in 1982 and a further grant from the Australian government enabled the ACC to achieve and maintain financial self-sufficiency. The ACC, now known as [[Media Access Australia]], sold its commercial captioning division to [[Red Bee Media]] in December 2005. Red Bee Media continues to provide captioning services in Australia today.<ref>{{cite web |url = http://www.dbcde.gov.au/__data/assets/pdf_file/0020/84710/Media_Access_Australia_-_Response_to_Media_Access_Review_2008.pdf |title = Submission to DBCDE's investigation into Access to Electronic Media for the Hearing and Vision Impaired |access-date = 2009-02-07 |author1 = Alex Varley |date = June 2008 |publisher = Media Access Australia |location = Australia |pages = 12, 18, 43 |url-status = dead |archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20090326214643/http://www.dbcde.gov.au/__data/assets/pdf_file/0020/84710/Media_Access_Australia_-_Response_to_Media_Access_Review_2008.pdf |archive-date = 2009-03-26 }}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.mediaaccess.org.au/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=359&Itemid=100|title=About Media Access Australia|publisher=Media Access Australia|location=Australia|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090101180233/http://www.mediaaccess.org.au/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=359&Itemid=100|archive-date=1 January 2009|access-date=2009-02-07}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.redbeemedia.com.au/aboutus-australia.html |title=About Red Bee Media Australia |access-date=2009-02-07 |publisher=Red Bee Media Australia Pty Limited |location=Australia |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090613004348/http://www.redbeemedia.com.au/aboutus-australia.html |archive-date=June 13, 2009 }}</ref>
