Accessibility Notice

Providing our information to all users, including those with a disability, is important to us.

This website has been designed to ensure accessibility in the following ways:

Tab-based navigation and skip to links

This website allows full tab-based navigation:

  • when you are on a menu item or hyperlink, press enter to activate
  • hold down shift and tab to reverse the tab cycle
  • at the top of each page there are options to skip to various areas of the page to assist users of screen readers and users that are viewing the website zoomed in 

Text resizing

Text on this site can be resized by:

  • using the zoom tools on the website’s page header
  • using the zoom and increase font options from your browser’s menu
  • press the Ctrl key (Microsoft Windows) or the Apple key (Mac OS) on your keyboard and use the + or – key to zoom in and out
  • press Ctrl on your keyboard and scroll with your mouse wheel

Hyperlinks

Wherever possible, hyperlinks contain descriptions of information found in the link’s destination.

All links open in the same window to improve usability for people with vision impairment, with the exception of links to documents, which open in a new window.

Images

All images that are used to display a meaning will have alternative text available. Some browsers may also display a tooltip of this alternative text when the cursor hovers or focuses on the image. Images that are used for decorative purposes only do not contain any alternative text.

Tables

Where possible tables are only used to display tabular information and are not used for formatting. Row and column headings have been identified using HTML for use with assistive technologies. On our pages which display many publications we have chosen to display these publications in a tabular format to allow ease of access to multiple formats.

Document attachments

In most cases, documents are provided in PDF format (.pdf). These attachments open in a new browser window.

Alternative document formats (eg Microsoft Word format) can be requested using the report it button on the home page.

Viewing documents

If you do not have the required software to view the documents available on this site, the following free downloads or online applications will allow you to view the documents:
