Technical information about this system’s accessibility
We are committed to making our online services accessible, in accordance with the Public Sector Bodies (Websites and Mobile Applications) Accessibility Regulations, 2018.
Compliance status
This part of our website is partially compliant with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG), due the non-compliances listed.
Non-compliances and non-accessible content
Currently:
- some (best practice) coding 'landmarks' are missing, therefore content structure may be hard for screen-readers to interpret, as content outside structural sections can be difficult to find or have unclear purpose - this relates to success criterion (A) 1.3.1 (Info and Relationships)
- there is no way to perform some functionality using only the keyboard, making it hard to navigate for keyboard-only users - this relates to success criterion (A) 2.1.1 (Keyboard)
- some heading elements are not in a sequentially descending order and fail to convey the semantic structure of the page, making it harder to navigate and understand when using assistive technologies - this relates to success criterion (AA) 2.4.6 (Headings and Labels)
We have identified the areas of this system that need to be addressed in order to meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines. We're working with our suppliers to rectify known issues at the time of each software update.
Preparation of this accessibility statement
This statement was prepared on 4 December 2025.
Tests were carried our by our Web Services Team using automated and manual checks across a sample of user-journeys within the system against the WCAG 2.1 guidelines; the results of the sample checks are indicative of the accessibility status across the wider system.
