Compliance status

This website is partially compliant with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines version 2.1 AA standard, due to the non-compliances and exemptions listed below.

Non-accessible content

The content listed below is non-accessible for the following reasons.

Non-compliance with the accessibility guidelines:

• Some images do not have a text alternative.
• Some areas of colour contrast do not meet accessibility requirements.

Disproportionate burden:

• Some of our older PDFs and Word documents do not meet accessibility standards. When considering whether we can provide the information in an accessible format, we will assess:
  • how much the work would cost and the impact that carrying out the work would have on us
  • how much users with a disability would benefit from us carrying out the work
• Some third party software does not meet accessibility standards. We plan to implement accessibility updates as soon as they are available from the developer.

What we are doing to improve accessibility

Improving accessibility is an ongoing committment.
