Accessible Websites and Law

[learninghtml]

Hi,
It has been mentioned in another thread about the requirement in some countries that it is required that websites hosted in those countries must be accessible to those people with disabilities. I have done some digging and found some info. which I obtained from a legal website here in the UK.

See attached txt file...

I have not altered and did not write this document. The information source is given at the bottom of the page.

Regards

Thanks for bringing this to people's attention. There is also a fairly detailed article specifically about the UK DDA here: http://elj.warwick.ac.uk/jilt/01-2/sloan.html

You can read the full text of the DDA at the HMSO website: http://www.legislation.hmso.gov.uk/acts/acts1995/1995050.htm
