Compliance Status

The website has been tested against the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 AA standard.

This website is partially compliant with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines version 2.2 AA standard, due to the non-compliances listed below:

Non-accessible content

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

Disproportionate burden

Some PDF documents are not fully accessible to screen reader software. We’ve assessed the time required to fix the issue and we believe that doing so now for all documents would be a disproportionate burden within the meaning of the accessibility regulations. We will review this at our next accessibility review.

Content that’s not within the scope of the accessibility regulations

The accessibility regulations do not require us to fix PDFs or other documents published before 23 September 2018 if they’re not essential to providing our services.

Any new PDFs or Word documents we publish will aim to meet accessibility standards.
