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); non-compliances are listed.
Non-compliances and non-accessible content
Currently:
- some HTML elements are not correctly identified (multiple elements use the same ID attribute), so assistive technologies may be unable to operate properly - this relates to success criterion (AA) 4.1.1
- some images do not have a plain text alternative, so users of assistive technologies may be unable to discern visual content - this relates to success criterion (AA) 1.1.1
- some controls are not correctly identified (links don't have discernible text or contain only non-text content), so assistive technologies may be unable to operate properly - this relates to success criterion (AA) 2.4.4
What we’re doing to improve accessibility
We have identified the areas of this system that need to be addressed in order to meet accessibility standards; we're working with our suppliers to rectify known issues as soon as possible.
